Moet & Chandon Brut Imperial NV (750ML)

92 WS / 90 VM / 90 JS

Gold Medal - Drinks Business Best Champagnes of 2021

The world’s biggest Brut NV Champagne is also one of the best, gaining some of the highest scores of its category in this year’s competition. Praised for its fresh fruit flavours, from apple to raspberry and lemon, and gently bready and chalky notes, it was deemed a textbook taste of Champagne at a relatively accessible price. - The Drinks Business

"The minerally undertow imparts a subtle, smoky note that blends with flavors of dried pineapple, biscuit, salted almond and white peach. A balanced version, with a fine bead and well-honed acidity." — Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator

"Light, bright yellow. Musky pear and toasty lees on the nose and in the mouth. Fleshy and open-knit, with a hint of bitter lemon pith adding back-end cut. Finishes on a gently smoky note, with very good cling and focus and a hint of bitter quinine. This must be the best example of this bottling that I've had in years, if not decades." — Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media

Strong lemon, grapefruit and peach fruit aromas are on offer here. This is upfront and fresh on the nose. The palate has forward fruit in the same vein. Tangy, tropical finish. Drink now. - James Suckling
