Brut Nature Collection Impériale No.1 is the iconic Champagne of the Moët & Chandon maison that represents its purest stylistic expression. It combines the refinement of Chardonnay with the structure of Pinot Noir, making use of the velvety softness of Pinot Meunier. The stylistic imprint is guaranteed by the addition of 20-30% of reserve wines. A full 24 months of refinement. Tension and intensity on notes of green apple and sparkling citrus fruits. On tasting, the freshness of white flowers and mineral hints stand out, fading into the elegance of brioche and fresh walnuts, in a sumptuous and refined enjoyment. Ideal for the whole meal, perfect with oysters, sushi and white-fleshed fruit.

It all began in 1743, when Claude Moët founded a Maison in his own name after a long experience first as a vigneron and later as a cellar master. It did so by starting to distribute its wines in Paris outside the Champagne region in an era that coincided with the growth in demand for sparkling wine: success was immediate, so much so that in a short time Moët Champagne became the most appreciated one at the court of King of France and at the end of the 18th century it was exported throughout Europe and the United States of America. The growth continued with his nephew Jean Remy, who purchased new land, expanded the cellars, and built a real commercial network that reached famous clients such as Thomas Jefferson and Napoleon Bonaparte. Subsequently Remy will leave the leadership of Moët to his son Victor and son-in-law Pierre Gabriel Chandon, from whom the current name of the Maison, Moët & Chandon Champagne, derives.
