Chandon, a brand from LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, is the latest addition to Refriango's portfolio. To celebrate this new achievement, the official presentation of the brand took place today at the Intercontinental Hotel in Luanda for clients and consumers. This partnership strengthens Refriango's leadership position in the Angolan market, where it represents and distributes some of the most iconic international brands.
Luanda, February 10, 2023 – Moët Chandon is one of the most respected and valued brands both in Angola and globally. Staying true to the lifestyle and values it represents, the world's largest champagne and sparkling wine company begins a new phase of expansion in the national market, with Refriango now incorporating three Chandon references into its portfolio: Chandon Réserve Brut, Chandon Brut Rosé, and Chandon Riche Demi-Sec.
Stef Kondylis, Market Manager for Southern Africa at Moët Hennessy, present at the event in Angola, shared, “The launch of Chandon marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Moët Hennessy in Angola. Chandon perfectly complements those special moments shared between friends, enjoying the Angolan sun or a night together. I am thrilled to be here to share this moment and for the opportunity to support the growth of this exceptional brand over the coming years.”
Tânia Jardim, Refriango's Marketing Manager, stated, “Having the three Chandon references in our portfolio is undoubtedly a huge achievement, as it has been a long-standing goal for Refriango to expand its wine and sparkling wine range. Negotiations were only concluded at the end of last year. We believe that Chandon is the ideal product for a younger audience seeking the sophistication and quality of the LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton house. The Angolan public already recognizes the brand for its prominence in Brazil and worldwide, and that’s why Refriango sought to secure the brand’s distribution in Angola.”
“One of Chandon’s messages is that its products ‘open a world of possibilities,’ and it is with this spirit that Refriango takes on the responsibility of distributing the brand. With Chandon, we’re enhancing our offerings, providing our clients with another iconic and top-quality product.”
Founded in 1959 by visionary Robert-Jean de Vogüé, Chandon is a pioneering sparkling wine brand with the goal of redefining the sparkling wine category and creating outstanding options in unexpected locations. Currently present on four continents, in wine regions such as Argentina, California, Brazil, Australia, China, and India, Chandon has become the world’s largest sparkling wine company. Chandon boasts a network of sixteen winemakers from seven different nationalities, representing new terroirs, innovative methods, and a constantly curious approach that brings together diverse lands and people.
The three references imported by Refriango aim to satisfy a sophisticated yet relaxed audience who does not compromise on the quality of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton products. Chandon Réserve Brut is a classic, fruity, and easy-to-drink sparkling wine with a fresh and delicate aroma that pairs well with oysters, sushi, or cheeses. Chandon Brut Rosé, made primarily from Pinot Noir, has subtle aromas of strawberry and cherry, and pairs well with salads, carpaccio, and grilled fish. Chandon Riche Demi-Sec strikes the perfect balance between freshness and creaminess, with aromas of mango, dried fig, honey, and peach, making it a great match for spicy dishes, foie gras, and desserts.
