LVMH Moët Hennessy

The portfolio is built on a 'Maison' model, where each brand operates with high autonomy to protect its unique terroir and craftsmanship. The collection is organized into two primary pillars:

• Champagne & Wines: Includes icons like Moët & Chandon, Dom Pérignon, Veuve Clicquot, Krug, and Ruinart. It also features 'New World' pioneers like Cloudy Bay (New Zealand) and Ao Yun (China).
• Cognac & Spirits: Anchored by Hennessy, the world’s leading cognac. The portfolio also includes Glenmorangie and Ardbeg whiskies, Belvedere vodka, and the ultra-luxury Volcan de mi Tierra tequila.

As of 2026, Moët Hennessy has significantly expanded its presence in the media and cultural sectors, acquiring major business and science publications to better integrate the 'Art of Living' into its digital brand strategy.

The popularity of Moët Hennessy stems from its ability to maintain 'Relative Scarcity' while achieving global availability through the massive distribution power of LVMH.

• The Arnault Vision — Since February 2025, the appointment of Alexandre Arnault as Deputy CEO has revitalized the brand's appeal to younger, digitally native luxury consumers.
• 2026 Sustainability Milestones — The group is on track to achieve its LIFE 360 target of a 50% reduction in energy-related GHG emissions by the end of 2026, making it a leader in 'Ethical Luxury.'
• Cultural Iconography — Through strategic ties to high fashion, Formula 1, and global music icons, brands like Hennessy and Moët & Chandon remain the definitive symbols of celebration and success.
• Unrivaled Rarity — Owning rare properties like Château d’Yquem (the only Premier Cru Supérieur in Sauternes) ensures the group remains the undisputed destination for the world’s most elite collectors.
