It’s not often thought of for Champagne to be “vintage”, but these make for some of the best! This traditional blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier are knitted together seamlessly with flavours of lemon, toast, green apple, and a smoky mineral characteristic.
Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage is made from a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes, all sourced from a single vintage. The wine is aged for at least seven years in the cellars, which gives it a rich and complex character. It has aromas of ripe fruit, such as peach, apricot, and pineapple, as well as notes of vanilla, toast, and honey. On the palate, it is full-bodied and creamy, with flavors of fruit, brioche, and almond, and a long and elegant finish. The wine has a balanced acidity, which makes it suitable for pairing with a variety of dishes, such as seafood, poultry, or light pasta dishes. Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage has received positive reviews from various wine critics, such as Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast, and it is considered one of the best Champagnes in its price range.
