Moët & Chandon
Moët & Chandon is the world’s largest and most renowned champagne producer.
The history of this globally recognized brand dates back to 1743, when French winemaker Claude Moët founded the company then called Moët et Cie (Moët & Co.).
Although Claude himself achieved business success, the real rise of Moët began at the end of the 18th century, when his grandson, Jean-Remy Moët, took over the business.
He was the one who transformed the legacy into a symbol of luxury, pleasure, and prestige.
The house’s champagnes quickly gained popularity among the political elite of the time, and many world rulers enjoyed them, including Russian Tsar Alexander II, Austrian Emperor Francis II, British Queen Victoria, and many others.
One of the greatest admirers of Moët’s champagnes was French Emperor Napoleon, who often indulged in lavish feasts at the Moët estate.
In his honor, the pride of the house and its best-selling champagne was named Brut Impérial.
