Moët & Chandon raised the curtain on its original culinary concept LE & with the Maison’s legendary sense of style and panache. At LE &, Moët & Chandon’s celebrated hospitality was on display in the heart of Champagne as it welcomed its global brand ambassador Roger Federer and its collaborator and three-time Michelin-starred French Chef Yannick Alléno, with Moët & Chandon President and CEO Stéphane Baschiera and Chef de Cave Benoît Gouez.

At LE &, guests were brought together to share in the dynamic encounter of vintage champagne & visionary gastronomy; the culinary talent of Chef Yannick Alléno & the craftsmanship of Moët & Chandon Chef de Cave Benoît Gouez; and the spontaneity of a champagne bubble & the generations of savoir-faire to create it.

“Once again, Moët & Chandon is sharing its champagne with the world in a way that is big and bold!” said Roger Federer. “It’s a privilege and also a great pleasure to be here to witness this amazing encounter of two pioneers: Moët & Chandon and Yannick Alléno.”

The opening of LE & calls for an equally momentous champagne, and last night Moët & Chandon unveiled Grand Vintage 2006, the newest – and 71st – addition to the Maison’s prestigious Grand Vintage Collection. Floral, expansive and succulent, Grand Vintage 2006 is the perfect embodiment of the Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage spirit, founded on three essential values: freedom of interpretation, selection of the year’s most remarkable wines, and respect for the individuality of each vintage.
