Very fine bead. Pungent nose that's quite reduced at first with some citrus peel and with quite an unusually chewy finish. Multi-layered and with some aspects that are already quite mature. A wine to chew over – definitely not a casual aperitif style! It may be zero dosage but has nothing in common with the austere zero-dosage grower champagnes which tend to be much younger. If you're looking for freshness above all, this is not the champagne for you but it's certainly intriguing, with a slight sweetness on the finish. (JR) — Jancis Robinson, 20th July 2023

The Pillar of Champagne Excellence
Moët & Chandon, founded by Claude Moët in 1743, quickly gained favor among European nobility during King Louis XV’s reign. Jean-Rémy Moët, Claude's grandson, expanded the brand internationally, with a notable friendship with Napoleon Bonaparte, who frequently visited the estate and inspired the creation of Moët Impérial.
In 1832, the company was renamed Moët et Chandon, incorporating Pierre-Gabriel Chandon de Briailles as a partner. The house launched its first vintage Champagne in 1842 and introduced the renowned Dom Pérignon label.
Now part of the LVMH group, Moët & Chandon has the largest vineyard in Champagne and extensive cellars for aging their wines. Cellar master Benoît Gouez upholds the brand’s signature style, blending grapes from various terroirs to create a harmonious product.
