Champagne Ice Rosé Imperial

MOËT & CHANDON

The company's history dates back to 1742, when Claude Moët (1683-1760) began exporting wine from Champagne to Paris. In 1794, Jean-Remy Moët (1758-1841) bought the former monastery of Hautvillers, where the monk Dom Pérignon had refined the production techniques for Champagne, and Moët soon began exporting it to other European countries and to the United States. Jean-Remy Moët met Napoleon Bonaparte as early as 1781 and became friends with the then unknown Corsican boarding school pupil, who himself came from a family of winegrowers. During his later campaigns, Napoleon always carried a supply of Moët's champagne with him, and he planned his travels so that he could regularly come to Epernay on his way through and visit his friend Moët. The age of the Napoleonic Wars made champagne - especially Napoleon's favorite brand, Moët - famous throughout Europe.
