The production of Moët & Chandon's Grand Vintage 2016 champagne

Grand Vintage 2016 is the brand's 77th vintage. Composed of 48% Chardonnay, 34% Pinot Noir, and 18% Meunier, Grand Vintage 2016 is a tribute to the richness of the Champagne terroirs. The grapes reflect the excellence of a vintage marked by contrasting weather conditions. The Chardonnay, fresh and mineral, offers subtle citrus aromas. The Pinot Noir brings generous, vinous notes, while the Meunier adds a touch of fruit.

This vintage was vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve its aromatic purity. The champagne was then aged for at least five years in Moët & Chandon's historic cellars, with a subtle dosage of 5 g/l, creating a perfect balance between freshness and complexity.

The 2016 vintage

The 2016 vintage is the result of an exceptional year, when nature put the Champagne winegrowers to the test. After a wet spring and a hot summer, the harvest revealed black grapes of remarkable quality. This year is distinguished by a perfect balance between tension and maturity, offering champagnes with a unique aromatic depth.
