Moet and Chandon Imperial Brut Non Vintage Champagne Magnum

Moet and Chandon Imperial Brut Non Vintage, France, Magnum

Grapes: Traditional method (bottle fermented) using roughly 30–40% Pinot Noir, 30–40% Pinot Meunier and 20–30% Chardonnay, with the final cuvée composed from over a hundred individual wines and 20–30% reserve wines

Producer Tasting Note:

Expect bright fruitiness with aromas of pear and citrus, backed by delicate brioche and a seductive, elegant palate. The texture is soft yet vibrant, finishing with fresh acidity and a creamy sensibility that makes it easy to enjoy now.

Since 1743 Moet has stood as a household name in Champagne, and the Imperial Brut NV magnum offers a balanced blend and a poised, crowd-pleasing character. Floral and toasty on the nose, the wine combines bright fruit notes, gentle toasty depth, with spicy tertiary notes, giving a persistent finish. A refined, versatile bottle.

Critics' Tasting Notes:

Roger Voss of Wine Enthusiast (December 2022) described it as “an approachable Champagne, fine in its texture and soft fruit… a touch of citrus keeps the wine fresh” (90/100). Revista Adega (April 2024) praised its tense, refined profile and persistent finish, awarding 91/100

Why choose the Magnum size? The 1.5 litre format is ideal for weddings, anniversaries or special gifts — it makes a striking presentation and is perfect for sharing at celebrations.

Food Match: serve well chilled and pair with smoked salmon blinis, fresh oysters or delicate crab croquettes to complement the wine’s citrus and brioche notes. Also a wonderful match for festive canapés, sushi or crab salads
