1911 Moet Bottle - Advice

Posting on behalf of someone from another forum.

Anyone shed some light on this bottle? Label looks different to Brut Imperial examples I’ve seen, admittedly it is a Dry Imperial. Any value? I believe it is a 750Ml bottle.

Dave,

Depending on the fill, how it was stored, and the pedigree/traceability of its ownership, it could be a valuable bottle though most older champagnes from Moet that are selling high right now are direct from the cellars. Bottles from Moet of the 1911 can sell for north of $20k and other bottles with pedigree and top condition could go for $10-$20k. As for this bottle, more would need to be known.

It was a very good vintage for Champagne.

Is it me or does that look like either a 187ml or a 375ml and not a 750?

+1. Size of the cork makes me think the same.

IIRC, dry champagne had a dosage between demi-sec and extra dry

Look at this.

Yes, probably a Sec dosage - so right in between the two. Mid to upper 20 g/L range would probably be about right.

Just following up the guy about the size of it. I agree it looks out of proportion but am not sure if due to a funny camera angle.
