Moet & Chandon Ice Impérial

Product Information:

Ice Impérial, the first and only champagne especially created to be enjoyed over ice. A new champagne experience combining fun, fresh and free sensations while remaining true to the Moët & Chandon style, a style distinguished by its bright fruitiness, its seductive palate and its elegant maturity.

Moët Ice Impérial, served over ice, can be harmoniously complemented with "fresh" ingredients that highlight its fresh finish. We recommend a sprig of mint, a zest of lime or white grapefruit, or a few cardamom seeds. Fresh seafood complements Moët Ice Impérial perfectly during the long hot summer months.

Maker:

The legendary Moët & Chandon is celebrating 280 years as the world’s most loved champagne. For over a quarter of a millennium, the renowned French winemaker has been sharing the magic of champagne across the globe. Every glass overflows with the House’s hallmark values of history, generosity, savoir-faire, success, boldness and elegance—values still at the heart of its global appeal. Toward the end of the 18th century, Jean-Remy Moët, grandson of founder Claude Moët, became famous as the man who introduced champagne to the world. The important figures of the era, from the Marquise de Pompadour to Talleyrand to Napoleon quickly fell in love with the House’s effervescent wine. Moët & Chandon was soon the icon of success and elegance that it remains to this day.

The Vineyard/Philosophy:
As Chef de Cave, Benoît Gouez’s mastery of his art ensures champagne with the distinctive Moët & Chandon character. His style and integrity are essential to bringing out the best in each year’s harvest, in his words, “highlighting and sublimating the special characteristics of the grapes grown in Champagne.” With his consummate respect for the natural qualities of the fruit, this young, atypical Chef de Cave is the ideal guardian of the Moët & Chandon spirit.

Palate - Round, Crunchy Fruit Salad, Fresh
A generous palate combining roundness and freshness. The broad, fleshy, voluptuous flavour of a fresh fruit salad.
