Moet & Chandon Impérial is the House’s most well-known champagne. It was founded in 1869. It also exhibits Moet & Chandon’s style, which is defined by its vibrant fruitiness.
It is a well-known champagne house and one of the world’s major champagne makers. Furthermore, it’s a seductive palate and elegant maturity.
The typical Champagne grapes of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier are used to make Moet & Chandon’s iconic Moet Impérial. But it isn’t the end of the narrative.
Those grapes are harvested from hundreds of parcels (individual plots of land within a vineyard) in dozens of communities around the limestone-rich Champagne region.
While the ingredients are straightforward in the name, the production of Moet Champagne is a complicated process that reflects a tapestry of terroir.
