The Impérial is the most emblematic champagne of the house and also the most well-known and widely sold. It combines in its coupage the three Champagne grape varietals, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay.
Blended from more than 100 different wines, between 20% and 30% are selected reserve wines that have more complexity and a better structure to age.
It was first created in 1869, and it is characterised by a bright fruitiness with an elegant scented nose of green apples, citrus, and white flower notes, with mineral nuances. A full, rich mouthful of white fruits and citrus on the palate with an elegant maturity feel.
Note: Moët Impérial is ideal to be enjoyed throughout the whole meal, from the aperitif to the dessert. Enjoy it now, or it can be enjoyed after many years when stored with care.
Moët & Chandon is the giant of the champagne industry and is getting bigger. With its vast vineyards, this Maison is one of the largest in the Champagne region. They are champagne producers with a distinct personality where tradition and innovation go hand in hand.
Actually, they belong to the LVMH Group, a world leader in luxury and success. The business was founded in 1743 by Claude Moët, a broker and a grower from the Grande Vallée de la Marne, and since then it has not stopped growing and succeeding. Moët completely dominates today the export business with their range of premium champagne produced.
