"It's an iconic name and an iconic winery," he said. "It's important for us that we are acquiring a family with a legacy and heritage. It's super important that we keep that heritage." Schaus said Moet Hennessy aims to serve "all the different moments of consumption" — from aperitifs, champagne and fine dining wines to bars, clubs and cocktails. The company's Cloudy Bay brand covers white wines, and its Whispering Angel line offers rose, but Schaus said, "we were missing a strong red wine."
