WINE: MOET ET CHANDON Nectar Imperial NV

Type: Sparkling White (Demi-Sec)
Origin: Champagne, France
Approx Cost: $70

Wow, okay, this was interesting. I try another wine from the Moet range, with lower expectations that usual. The first thing to hit me is the richness of it all. Then the sweetness slowly ebbs in. This reminds me a lot of the lovely Chandon Cuvee Riche, with the important difference being the sweetness of the Cuvee Riche hit you on the palate, while the sweetness of the Nectar Imperial slowly reveals itself in the finish.

A very good wine when you’re in the mood for something sweet. Refined and surprisingly good value for a $70 wine.
