Appearance: Attractive deep colour. Fine, persistent bubbles. Bouquet: A symphony of fruity aromas, especially strawberry and raspberry. Palate: The aromas carry over onto the palate, which is smooth with all the fruitiness and finesse one would hope for in pink Champagne. Roasted notes on the aftertaste, with just the right amount of dosage. Perfect for the aperitif or with a first course.

Moët & Chandon is arguably the most famous name in the world of Champagne and "Moet" lives up to the hype. Its successful reputation is primarily built on the quality and finesse of its wines, as well as its widespread publicity. The vintage cuvée (based on Pinot Noir fruit) is rich and complex with lovely notes of brioche and almond. Moët Vintage is perfect as an aperitif or surprsingly with many wide and varied food matches.

The Armand de Brignac Rose Champagne is crafted with Pinot Noir from old vines, planted in the Montagne de Reims, that produce fruit with powerful flavor intensity. The resulting cuvee features bright, fresh layers of red fruits, complemented by hints of baked pastry aromas. Strawberry, currants and cherry on the nose, with floral hints and a touch of sweet almond. The red grape dominance brings a structured palate filled with black fruits, cherries and hints of baked pastry. Ideal as an aperitif or pairs well with truffled veal, duck confit and wild salmon.
