Rose Imperial (200 ml)

Founded in 1743 by Claude Moët, the house built its reputation on scientific precision at scale — a tasting committee of ten oenologists evaluates over 822 base wines annually before Chef de Cave Benoît Gouez finalises each assemblage. Rosé Impériale draws on

that same discipline: a Pinot Noir-dominant NV blend sourced across 200+ crus spanning Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, Côte des Blancs, Sézanne, and the Aube, with 20–30% reserve wines anchoring house consistency vintage to vintage.

Beneath Épernay, 28 km of chalk cellars — the most extensive in Champagne — maintain constant humidity and temperature during lees ageing that exceeds the AOC minimum, building the seductive, slightly creamy palate that defines Moët's deliberate contrast to austere, yeast-driven house styles.

Fermentation takes place in thermoregulated stainless steel, with systematic malolactic fermentation — a technique Moët pioneered in the region — softening acidity and amplifying the red-fruit vivacity characteristic of the rosé expression. The 200 ml format

is the category transgression here: the full NV assemblage philosophy compressed into a single-serve bottle, making Grand Cru and Premier Cru fruit accessible without the commitment of a full bottle.

As an NV, it is built for immediate drinking, delivering the house's signature fruit-forward brightness in its freshest window.
