Moet and Chandon Dom Perignon Champagne 2006
Moet began business in 1750 with Madame de Pompadour, who supplied the Royal Court at Compiegne with Moet's champagne. Also in 1750, Moet began establishing business in Germany, Spain, Eastern Europe, and colonial British America. In 1792, on Claude Moet's death, grandson Jean-Remy Moet assumed control of Moet et Cie, and expanded the business buying the vineyards of the Abbey of Hautvillers, where Benedictine monk Dom Perignon perfected double-fermentation for creating champagne. Moet et Chandon is now the leading vine-grower in Champagne, with the most extensive vineyards, an inheritance of fundamental importance in the constitution of its assemblages (blends).
