Champagne house founded in 1743 in Épernay; producer of the flagship cuvée “Brut Impérial” (created in 1869). “Astucciato” indicates the gift-boxed presentation. ([lvmh.com](https://www.lvmh.com/en/our-maisons/wines-spirits/moet-chandon/))
The story
Founded in 1743 by Claude Moët; international expansion was driven by Jean-Rémy Moët; in the 19th century the company became Moët et Chandon (now part of the LVMH group). ([lvmh.com](https://www.lvmh.com/en/our-maisons/wines-spirits/moet-chandon/))
Production philosophy
The House style is marked by bright fruitiness, generosity and elegance; consistency is achieved through complex blends and reserve wines (e.g. Brut Impérial is an assemblage of over 200 crus with reserve wine inclusion). ([moet.com](https://www.moet.com/en-us/node/26))
Terroir and vineyards
Champagne region; headquarters and extensive underground cellars in Épernay; sourcing across many Champagne crus; the House states ~1,300 hectares of vineyards and ~28 km of cellars. ([lvmh.com](https://www.lvmh.com/en/our-maisons/wines-spirits/moet-chandon/))
