Moet & Chandon

Claude Moet, a wine trader descended from an old family resident in the Champagne region since the 14th century, founded his house in Epernay in 1743, and decided to perpetuate the Dom Perignon legacy.
His grandson, Jean-Rémy Moet, is the one who, in the 19th century, really helped the house expand by opening it up to foreign markets.
Jean-Rémy Moët handed the house over to his son and his son-in-law, Pierre-Gabriel Chandon de Briailles. It then took on the Moet & Chandon.
With an inherited tradition and know-how strengthened over the generations, Moet & Chandon is today number one in the profession and the Champagne brand of reference. Leader in the export market, the house sells over 80% its of production to foreign markets.

Its reputation is exceptional: a Moët & Chandon cork pops somewhere on Earth every single second. The house's vineyards span a total of 771 hectares. This makes it by far the greatest in the region.
