I would buy this wine again

I first had this Champagne back in September. My wife and I were in Paris for our Honeymoon and we rented a car and went to Champagne. After the tour of Moet and getting our pictures taken with Dom, we bought a bottle from their gift shop. Once we got back to Paris we popped it while lying under the Eiffel and wow, what a way to compliment the experience. She liked it because of the strawberry undernotes and how amazingly crisp it was. This is perfect for any special occasion especially as a wedding gift, New Years, or anniversary.

A Customer - Boston
I took this to Foxwoods with my husband to a very luxiorious hotel with a jacuzzi in room. Let me tell you Jacuzzi + Rose Imperial Moet= A great memorable night.

A Customer - Nevada
Just purchased my first bottle of M & C NV Brut Imperial Rose. After reading the reviews I am very much looking forward to serving this bubbly at my next dinner party.

A Customer - Anchorage, AK
Hands down the best champagne coming out of France this year. Compare to Dom Brut Rose and you'll never pay so much for Champagne again. You can't go wrong with this Pinot based bubbly!

A Customer - Texas
We've had a lot of champagne...from Korbel to Dom. I simply can't believe how good this stuff is. For the price, it's exceptionally good. The only danger is that it's so smooth, you may finish the bottle yourself!

A Customer - Washington, DC
Fabulous! It left me a loyal consumer. The taste was soft, smooth and inviting. Got to be careful, you'll drink the whole bottle. You got to try it folks!

A Customer - USA
YUM! This is a very tasty, lively, approachable champagne - the pink color is very appealing, and the flavor is really FUN, especially if you're used to traditional Brut. Give it a try as a variation from White Star. Excellent with salmon.

A Customer - New York
We purchased several bottles of this M&C, based on the reviews, for our newborn daughter's celebration party. We don't drink champagne much, often red, but I have to tell you that our guests enjoyed it very much.

A Customer - ny, ny
This Champagne is very dry and would pair well with any poultry. I opened this after a meal of goose served with fall vegetables and realized i should have had it with dinner, not after. Overall a decent champagne, but for a simply party occasion or toast i would stick with White Star over this.

A Customer - Los Angeles
Love this. Refreshing and watermelony. Great alone or with only mildy spicy/salty food. Can pair with filet mignon and mild bearnaise well. I like it best alone, though.

A Customer - ohio
The best of imperial moet types. Great taste and color that makes it a hit with the ladies! Goes great in any situation.

A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
