Vinification of Moet Hennessy Champagne Brut

The Moet Hennessy Champagne Brut comes from Champagne, one of the world’s most famous wine regions in France. The local soils and the temperate climate with cool nights offer optimal conditions for cultivating the grape varieties Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. At Moet Hennessy, the grapes are carefully selected and always harvested at the ideal degree of ripeness in order to guarantee a balanced aroma profile.

Vinification is carried out with the utmost care: first, the grapes are gently pressed to obtain only the best portions of the must for the base of the sparkling wine. The cuvée of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir is then fermented separately, using state-of-the-art cellar technology. After the first fermentation, the different components are blended in the right proportions to create the characteristic style of the Moet Hennessy Champagne Brut.

The second fermentation, which produces the fine perlage, takes place in the bottle in accordance with the traditional Champagne method. During the subsequent aging on the lees for at least 15 months, the sparkling wine develops its typical creaminess and complexity. Finally, disgorgement takes place, during which the lees are removed, and the dosage determines the precise brut character.
