One of the world's largest and most prominent of champagne producers, Moet et Chandon was established in 1743 by Claude Moët. Dom Pérignon, acquired in 1930 from Mercier Champagne, is vintage champagne that is only made in the best year of harvested grapes with 60 percent Chardonnay and 40 percent Pinot Noir grapes.
Today this vineyard and winery owns more than 1,000 hectares (2,500 acres) of land and annually produces approximately 26,000,000 bottles of champagne. This winery is owned under the label Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy (LVMH) and holds a Royal Warrant to supply champagne to Queen Elizabeth II.
You can tour Moët & Chandon’s historic buildings and subterranean labyrinth of cellars, the largest in the Champagne region, spanning 28 km (17.4 mi). Advanced bookings for the tour are necessary and include either one flute tasting of champagne or two with the upgraded tour.

Amazing place to visit. I was here with a trade tour and managed to see some of the back of house space. Really beautiful house. The garden is just outstanding and the cellars are intriguing. If you know about champagne production the all place is even more impressive as they are able to deliver high quality products at large volumes year on year. Superb.

Very enjoyable tour, down into the miles of tunnels they use for aging their champagne. A glass of champagne in their tasting room is included in the tour. The tour is wheel chair friendly utilizing an elevator. Beautiful facility and Epernay is worth exploring.
