The Champagne Grand Vintage 2016 from Moët presents itself with balance and finesse, an expression of the vintage without excess. In the glass it shows lively perlage and an aromatic profile alternating notes of ripe fruit, white flowers and subtle bread-crust hints, suggesting a fresh structure and the character of the vintage. On the palate it displays balance between acidity and sapidity, with a pleasant mineral note on the finish that gives lift.

As a pairing it suits light preparations, seafood starters, baked fish or shellfish dishes, as well as tasting moments when one wants to appreciate the balance between freshness and creaminess. Serve chilled, in a flute or tulip glass, to highlight the aromas and persistence. It is a suitable choice for those seeking a typical Moët expression conveyed through the vintage indicated on the product.
