I had so much fun watching the Golden Globes this year and I thought it would be fun to talk about the official champagne of the Golden Globes for my weekly wine post. Some of you know that I’m really into champagne. In fact, I’m considering making a visit to France for my 40th and drinking all the champagne! As if it couldn’t get better, Moët & Chandon is Queen Elizabeth’s favorite. The company holds a “Royal Warrant” and is the family’s champagne of choice.
Moët & Chandon is known for promoting success and glamour and has 277 years of history behind the name. It’s no wonder it’s a favorite at award shows like the Golden Globes. For the awards show, they created a special cocktail called the Moët Golden Hour with pink grapefruit Belvedere Vodka, pineapple juice, simple syrup, and Moët & Chandon Impérial. It sounds delicious! Maybe worth recreating for the Oscars…
Moët Impérial was created in 1869 and is the House’s most well-known champagne. It’s created as a blend of Pinot Nero, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. It has a light, fresh and fruity taste with notes of green apple and citrus. It’s so delicious that apparently Napoleon kept it on hand to celebrate every victory.
Have you tried Moët & Chandon? I have a few big things in the works and I can’t wait to celebrate with a bottle!
