Revisiting Moët & Chandon's original advertising campaign that introduced
Scarlett Johansson as the brand's first celebrity ambassador, Walker's new
photographs bring to life the rich heritage and savoir-faire of the world's
leading champagne.

"Moët & Chandon, the most loved champagne since 1743, is a universal
symbol of joie de vivre and success. This new campaign highlights a return to
the immutable elegance and glamour that are inherent to both Moët and
Scarlett" said Moët & Chandon President & CEO Daniel Lalonde.

Shot on occasion of Moët & Chandon's "Tribute to Heritage" celebration in
September 2010, the campaign's three visuals depict Johansson at Trianon, an
impressive residence built by Jean- Rémy's Moët between 1805-1817 on the Moët
& Chandon Estate in Epernay, France. Combining extravagant staging with
romantic motifs, the images reflect Walker's signature style.

In the first image, Johansson holds in hand a bottle of Moët, which she
looks upon with warmth and sensuality, evoking the brand's allure.

In the second image, a time-lapse photograph sequence of five spontaneous
images captures the star's playful smiles and casual gestures, revealing her
extraverted nature.

In the third image, Johansson perches precariously on a wooden ladder in
one of the Trianon salons, above a generous champagne cascade - a grand
gesture invented by Moët, reflecting the brand's characteristic joy of
accomplishment…and accomplishment of joy.

The campaign includes print, outdoor and online advertising.
