✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the historic Grand Cru village of Sillery in the Montagne de Reims, Moët & Chandon's 'Les Champs de Romont' is a rare and prestigious Coteaux Champenois—a still white wine that pays homage to Champagne's pre-sparkling heritage. Sillery was legendary in the 17th and 18th centuries, prized by French royalty and international courts for its still wines. Crafted as a Blanc de Noirs from Pinot Noir grown in the chalk-rich soils of the single 'Les Champs de Romont' parcel, this wine undergoes meticulous vinification to preserve its pristine fruit character and intense minerality. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical soul of Champagne, combining the structure of Pinot Noir with a vibrant, chalky freshness and a textured, elegant finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1743 by Claude Moët, Moët & Chandon stands as Champagne's quintessential global ambassador. Anchored along the prestigious Avenue de Champagne in Épernay, the maison commands approximately 1,190 hectares of prime estate vineyards spanning the Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, and Vallée de la Marne, supplemented by an extensive network of grower partnerships. Viticulture emphasizes sustainability through certified Haute Valeur Environnementale (HVE) and Viticulture Durable en Champagne (VDC) protocols, eliminating chemical herbicides. Underground, 28 kilometers of historic chalk crayères provide the microclimatic stability required for extended lees maturation. Guided by longtime Chef de Cave Benoît Gouez, the winemaking philosophy prioritizes bright fruit purity, seductive palates, and elegant maturity through temperature-controlled stainless steel vinification and malolactic fermentation. The portfolio spans the ubiquitous benchmark Moët Impérial to the terroir-driven Grand Vintage expressions and multi-vintage prestige assemblages like Collection Impériale, epitomizing grand-scale precision and classical Champagne typicity.
