A BLEND OF 7 REMARKABLE VINTAGES

Collection Impériale Création N°1 is a blend of seven remarkable vintages, each with singularities, and each carefully evaluated and aged in distinct environments to enhance its individual qualities.

Their intricate assemblage begins with the fresh 2013 Grand Vintage, aged in stainless steel tanks, complemented by the refined 2012, powerful 2010, tense 2008, full-bodied 2006, lively 2000, aged in oak casks, and finished with the elegant 2004, bottle aged on lees after its second fermentation.

MOËT & CHANDON'S FIRST BRUT NATURE

Leveraging the art of selecting, aging, blending, and maturing, Collection Impériale Création N°1 is the first Moët & Chandon brut nature champagne, 0g/l, disgorged in 2022, delivering a pure expression of its flavors.

Benoît Gouez, our Cellar Master, tested to find the perfect harmony for this wine. His desire was to let the wine express all its aromatic complexity and find this delicate balance of harmony at the same time. When he was blindly tasting it, he decided a brut nature was the right way to let the wine’s character shine.
