The House of Champagne Moet & Chandon:
Established in 1743 Moet and Chandon is based in Epernay boasting
500 hectares of vineyards which yields a yearly production of 26
million bottles.
In 1972 Jean Remy Moet took control of the House of Moet which had
founded by his grandfather some 49 years before. Despite
difficulties in finding
adequate supplies of grapes during the Revolution the House
flourished and grew further during the Napoleonic era.
The concept of vintage Champagne made of exceptional grapes from the
same year was introduced in 1840 with Moet producing their first
vintage Champagne in 1842. The words “dry” and “sec” to indicate
dryness (see our Types of Champagne section) first appeared on Moet
labels in 1856. This was as a response to the British market who
wanted a dry Champagne to drink with their meals.
By the beginning of the 20th century, Moet & Chandon was one of the
major houses, due to their excellent collection of vineyards. Moet
and Chandon
continued to grow and in the 1960s produced 10 million bottles a
year (out of a global production of 70 million).
Russ Berrie Bear: Spencer Bear is part of the Russ
Berrie ‘Bears From The Past’ range. Crafted using rich new colours
and materials, this heirloom quality bear is sure to be a welcome
gift in the arms of teddy bear lovers and collectors of all ages.
The approximate size of Spencer Bear is 15".
