From 15 to 25 October 2026, Ruinart will set its table at Cheval Blanc Paris for the second time, alongside Arnaud Donckele. The return confirms that the first edition was not an isolated flourish but the beginning of a dialogue between Champagne and Parisian haute cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The difference between an event and a fixture is repetition. That shift is confirmed by the second edition of the Table Ruinart at Cheval Blanc Paris, scheduled for 15 to 25 October 2026. The oldest Champagne house reunites with a proven partner, Arnaud Donckele, chef of the three-Michelin-starred restaurants at Cheval Blanc Paris and Cheval Blanc Saint-Tropez, for a series of temporary gatherings built around its emblematic cuv\u00e9es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The principle remains true to the first edition: masterclasses and Michelin-starred gastronomic experiences conceived to accompany the house\u2019s cuv\u00e9es, whether well known or more discreet. Yet Ruinart and Arnaud Donckele are doing more than repeating the original format. For this second edition, the house proposes an entirely renewed experience, centred on an exclusive menu devised specifically for the occasion and, this time, themed around the Champagne vineyards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In practice, the programme unfolds in two distinct parts. First, two gastronomic lunches and six dinners, each in seven courses devised by the chef and his team for tables of 16 to 18 guests, paired with seven different Ruinart cuv\u00e9es. Second, eight masterclasses named Signature Chardonnay and Cave des Mill\u00e9simes, held every Saturday and Sunday, lasting an hour and a half, limited to 24 participants per session and focused on tasting three cuv\u00e9es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing the Champagne vineyards as the thread running through this edition is significant. It shifts the experience\u2019s centre of gravity: the point is no longer simply to taste Champagne alongside Michelin-starred cuisine, but to let the table itself tell the story of the terroir from which the cuv\u00e9es come. The vineyard is no longer a backdrop; it becomes the subject of the menu, in a deliberate dialogue between gastronomy and winegrowing landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Above all, this second edition establishes that the relationship between Ruinart and Arnaud Donckele is taking root. Rather than a one-off collaboration between a Champagne house and a three-Michelin-starred chef, the Table Ruinart is becoming a recurring format in which each edition refines the same dialogue between vineyard, gastronomy and the art of the table. Whether this October gathering at Cheval Blanc Paris will become an eagerly awaited annual event, like the major dates in the Parisian gastronomic calendar, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2077479\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed-768x417.png 768w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed-300x163.png 300w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/unnamed-585x318.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From 15 to 25 October 2026, Ruinart returns to Cheval Blanc Paris with Arnaud Donckele for a second series of gastronomic events.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":214,"featured_media":2077479,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[30090],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2079060","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-luxsure-international-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2079060","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/214"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2079060"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2079060\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2077479"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2079060"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2079060"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2079060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
