TASTING NOTES

A pale gold robe with gilded highlights, alive with fine, persistent bubbles. On the nose, an explosion of exotic fruit — white peach, lychee, ripe mango — over a delicate floral backdrop. On the palate, the texture is smooth and generous, underpinned by a sugar-acid balance deliberately crafted to withstand the dilution of ice; the fresh finish calls to mind citrus and white stone fruit.

About this house

Founded in 1743 by Claude Moët in Épernay, Moët & Chandon is the largest Champagne house in the world, its cellars stretching some 28 kilometres beneath the city. Absorbed into the LVMH group in 1971, the house tends nearly 1,190 hectares of estate vineyards and produces around 30 million bottles each year.

The custodian of a style built on freshness and the generosity of Pinot Noir, the house invented the concept of champagne on ice in 2009 with the Ice Impérial, opening up a new summer ritual of enjoyment. It is also home to Dom Pérignon, its prestige cuvée, and remains one of the great ambassadors of the French art de vivre.
