Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial: the classic champagne Moët

Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial is the most famous champagne from the house of Moët & Chandon. This brut champagne comes from the Champagne region and is made from Pinot Noir, Meunier, and Chardonnay. The style is fresh, fruity, and accessible, with just enough aging to also reveal notes of brioche and toast.

The blend relies on the power of Pinot Noir, the roundness of Meunier, and the finesse of Chardonnay. Furthermore, Moët uses reserve wines to keep the taste recognizable and consistent year after year. As a result, Brut Impérial is a true house champagne: reliable, festive, and versatile.

What does Moët Brut Impérial taste like?

In the glass, Moët Brut Impérial has a bright golden-yellow color and fine bubbles. The aroma is lively, with notes of green apple, pear, peach, citrus, and white flowers. Behind this, you taste light notes of brioche, toast, and a hint of honey.

The taste is fresh, round, and fruity. Citrus, apple, and peach are supported by a soft mousse and a refreshing acidity. The finish is clean, elegant, and lightly ripe. As a result, this champagne feels festive but not heavy.

What do you pair Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial with?

Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial is a versatile champagne for aperitifs, drinks, and dinner. Serve it with oysters, shrimp, sushi, smoked salmon, light fish dishes, or soft cheeses. This champagne also pairs excellently with chicken, salads, and festive appetizers.

Serve Moët Brut Impérial well chilled, around 8 to 10 degrees. Preferably use a tulip glass or a large champagne glass. This gives the fruity aromas and fine mousse more room than in a narrow flute.
