Moët & Chandon Ice Impérial Rose NV

Product Information: Ice Impérial Rosé, is the first and only rosé champagne especially created to be enjoyed on ice. A new champagne tasting experience that brings together pleasure, freshness and the free spirit of summer time. Characterized by an intense fruitiness and complexity, this vivid pink rosé champagne is designed to be enhanced with the addition of ice. The dominance of pinot noir (45-55%), of which 10% is still wine, gives this rosé champagne its colour and its depth. Meunier (35-45%), of which 10% is still wine, provides a round and fleshy texture in the mouth and adds to the champagne’s suppleness. Finally, chardonnay grapes (5-10%) impart a polished acidity, and a clean and refreshing finish. The perfect serve – Enjoy on ice in the Ice Imperial glass, or a wide-bowled wine / cabernet-style glass Service temperature – 10-12°C. 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.
