Nineteen of the Russian's 21 victories have been achieved on hard courts
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev secured his maiden title for 882 days with victory over opponent Moutet in the tournament title decider.
Medvedev, a former number one, has had a difficult period, managing just a single victory at the Grand Slams and experiencing a setback at the US Open.
The player's unpredictability on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serve in specific - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-term coach Gilles Cervara.
Presently collaborating with his coach and his other coach, he has consistently improved in the recent weeks - peaking in a hard-fought three-set victory over Frenchman Moutet.
This represents his first title following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface since March of the previous year.
The win also means Medvedev has secured 21 titles at 21 distinct tournaments.
"For the first time I am participating in a event with my children at once, so to win a title is particularly special," commented world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in honour of my second daughter my daughter, because the maiden victory I achieved when my child her name was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had lost his past six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
The player's counter-punching play style and regular outbursts on the tennis court had led commentators to question if his capacity to play at the highest level was finished.
Yet the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in the last few weeks, striving to come to the net and perform aggressively, supported by an better serve.
He recovered from a break down in the opening set against the challenging Moutet, winning four of the last five games to take the lead.
Both players traded break points in the following set before Moutet, attempting for his maiden ATP Tour victory, gained dominance to push for a decider.
He rescued 4 early opportunities in a competitive third set before the Russian secured a break to 15 to close out the victory.
Appropriately, Medvedev earned the title with a point at the net, with the Frenchman unable to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
