Key Characteristics of the 2006 Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage Champagne:
Blend: The 2006 vintage consists of a blend of the three main Champagne grape varieties:
Pinot Noir (42%)
Chardonnay (39%)
Meunier (19%)
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Complex and expressive with aromas of ripe stone fruits (such as peaches and apricots), citrus zest, and honey. Secondary notes include toasted brioche, almond, and subtle floral hints. With aging, you may also detect nuances of hazelnut, pastry, and spices.
Palate: The palate is full-bodied, creamy, and well-structured. You’ll find flavors of ripe yellow fruits like pear and peach, complemented by citrus zest and a touch of minerality. The wine is rich and layered, with an elegant balance between the fruitiness, acidity, and the toasty, biscuit-like flavors from the extended aging on the lees.
Finish: Long, vibrant finish with a refreshing burst of acidity and a lingering mineral note.
Body: Medium to full-bodied, with a creamy mousse and refined bubbles that give the wine a luxurious texture.
