The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Moët & Chandon, the flagship Champagne house founded in Epernay in 1743, is today the largest producer of Champagne wines, notably thanks to its brut Impérial champagne, which represents the bulk of its production. 

With the assurance of selected supplies and ultra-modern winemaking techniques led by the excellent cellar master Benoît Gouez, the House continues to please the world with creamy champagnes of great aromatic precision, with toasty and lemony notes.
Wine Revealed by an intense year, the 76th vintage in the history of the House, the 2015 White Grand Vintage Champagne is a great, deep and accomplished wine. Generous and enveloping, faithful to the Moët style, it opens with notes of almond, brioche, relayed by pure and delicate fruit, with a very fresh mentholated touch. Carried by a good proportion of black grapes, it is a deep, intense champagne, skilfully reconciling freshness and intensity.
Vinification Hand harvested, matured for 6 years in the cellar and aged for a minimum of 6 months after disgorgement.

Dosage : 5g/l (extra brut)
