A specially formulated version of Moët's famed Imperial Champagne that is great when served over ice. It's well balanced and fully flavoured like the regular Imperial but will retain its intensity and reveal rich fruit even when served with an ice cube. An interesting development in the world of summery fizz.

What is Moet Ice Imperial?

This is how M&C introduces the Ice Imperial cuvée: “Moët Ice Impérial, the first and only champagne especially created to be enjoyed over ice. A new champagne experience combining fun, fresh and free sensations while remaining true to the Moët & Chandon style, a style distinguished by its bright fruitiness, its seductive palate and its elegant maturity.”

Moët & Chandon’s chef de cave (understand, the Champagne house’s winemaker) has selected various wines for a blend (assemblage) that would work well and be harmonious even with the addition of ice cubes.

The dosage of Ice Imperial (or the added sugar at bottling), is pretty high, at 45 grams per liter corresponding to a Demi-Sec. Expect the Champagne to be fairly sweet then, far from the dryness of a more-common Brut. Obviously, the addition of ice dilutes these sugars, and makes the wine much colder which also will reduce the impression of sweetness.

Moët Ice Imperial is made from mainly Pinot Noir (40-50%), bringing a vinous and angular taste, intense fruitiness as well as body to complement the residual sugars. There is also Pinot Meunier (30-40%), that is full and fleshy for a rich, melting sensation on the mid-palate. The more mineral acidic Chardonnay (10-20%) is used to add up a refreshing finish. The final blend includes 20 to 30% reserve wines(wines kept from previous vintages, aged for longer therefore more complex) enhance the assemblage to complete its intensity, richness and constancy.

Tasting Notes

Ice Imperial comes in a solid lemon-yellow color, with a wealth of gold hues making it look vibrant and shiny. Slightly amber, it looks rather intense for a non-vintage cuvee, and suggests the wine has been in contact with oak.

The nose is also surprisingly intense and generous.  Indeed, there is an obvious presence of sweet oaky aromas, caramel-coated toasted hazelnut, and a touch of vanilla. More importantly, the aromatic profile is dominated by pungent ripe citrus notes, ripe orange, sweet lemon and orange peel, lemon marmalade. It smells sweet and round, yet elegant with depth from complex sweet spices and a touch of smokiness. It certainly smells fruitily tempting!

It is actually a little challenging and disconcerting to formally taste a wine that’s got ice in it. Even as a professional wine taster, you’re caught into the thought that this is a wine to be simply enjoyed and not overly analyzed. The presence of ice cubes made me think: ‘let’s just enjoy this sip and not worry about writing about it!”. Ice in a drink does have this sort of magical effect on your mind, creating the feel of a special festive moment, a moment of celebration.
