Maddie Salters reports on how Moët & Chandon plan to bring the Champagne Region to the heart of London for the next two weeks.
Moët & Chandon is perhaps the most recognisable name in Champagne. Its impressive estate, nestled into the heart of the Champagne Region of France, produces full-bodied sips, often with bold fruity notes and a gentle finish. As of 13 April, Moët & Chandon will bring the magic of its Épernay vineyards to Southbank in London, to delight the palates and imaginations of visitors.
Dubbed the Moët Academy, the Champagne experience will take place from Monday 13 April to Friday 20 April at OXO2. The views of the River Thames may be the only recognisable part of London life, as Susie Barrie MW and Peter Richards MW will take guests through a multi-sensory voyage that includes a re-creation of the vine-enconsed cellar, allowing connoisseurs to absorb the ambiance of the French region. After learning about the journey from grape to glass, guests will have their own flutes filled during a tasting of some of the brand’s choicest Champagnes.
Not to be missed, you can book you own 90-Minute session at moetacademy.co.uk. Pricing is £40 per person. Located at OXO2 Tower Wharf, Barge House Street, SE1 9PH.
