Moet and Chandon Imperial Reserve Brut Champagne (NV)

Wine Tasting Notes: Moët Impérial shows a golden straw color and bright aromas of green apple, citrus and white flowers over hints of brioche and fresh nuts. The palate is generous and creamy, with ripe pear, white peach and apple carried by a fine, lively mousse. A crisp, balanced finish makes it as good with oysters and sushi as it is for a celebratory toast.

Winery/Producer Highlights: Moët & Chandon — Founded in Épernay in 1743, Moët & Chandon is one of Champagne's oldest and most celebrated houses, with one of the largest vineyard holdings in the region. Impérial, the house's signature since 1869, blends Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay from more than 100 crus. Up to 30% reserve wines and at least two years of aging on the lees give the blend its consistent, fruit-forward style.
