Moet & Chandon

Moët & Chandon was founded in 1743 by Claude Moët in Épernay, at the heart of France’s Champagne region. Jean-Rémy Moët, Claude’s grandson, helped grow the house internationally, and the name became Moët & Chandon in 1833 when Pierre-Gabriel Chandon joined the family business.

About Moet & Chandon

Moët & Chandon was founded in 1743 by Claude Moët in Épernay, at the heart of France’s Champagne region. Jean-Rémy Moët, Claude’s grandson, helped grow the house internationally, and the name became Moët & Chandon in 1833 when Pierre-Gabriel Chandon joined the family business.

Moët & Chandon has long been closely associated with celebration and prestige Champagne, with Moët Impérial sitting at the centre of the range. The cuvée brings together Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay from more than 200 crus, giving the Champagne its rounded, balanced and widely recognised house style.

Now part of Moët Hennessy within LVMH, Moët & Chandon remains one of the largest and best-known Champagne houses in the world. Its vineyard holdings cover around 1,300 hectares, with extensive cellars beneath Épernay and a range that includes Brut Impérial, Rosé Impérial, Grand Vintage and Ice Impérial.
