Moet is my favorite of all the Maisons in Epernay.
Lucky, lucky me, my third visit this year.
Pinch me.
Beneath the 1700s Maison de Moet are 28 kilometers of chalk limestone caves.
Every single inch, hand picked with a pick axe, hundreds of years ago.
The temperature remains the same all year round at 55 degrees.
140 million bottles of bubbly rest inside the caves.
30 million are sold each year for celebrations from the everyday to the once in a lifetime.
Brut Champagne pairs best with fruit and sweets, as it has the least sugars.
Rose Champagne, my personal choice, always, was for ladies originally.
Here at Moet, grapes are harvested in a timeless ritual…
The expertise of centuries contintues to be celebrated today…
There is a profound respect for the fruits of nature…
For more than three centuries Moet et Chandon has been a symbol of luxury, from the Court of Versailles to the fetes of today.
Life here, as it has for centuries, revolves around Champagne.
Dreamy.
