19 of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been earned on hard surfaces
A resurgent Medvedev secured his first trophy for 882 days with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the competition championship match.
Medvedev, a ex- number one, has experienced a challenging period, managing just one win at the major tournaments and suffering a difficult moment at the US Open.
The player's inconsistency on the tennis tour - and struggles with his serve in specific - resulted in him dropping out of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-time coach his previous coach.
Currently training with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has consistently progressed in the last few weeks - peaking in a tightly fought competitive win over opponent Moutet.
This represents his first trophy following the Italian tournament and first on a hard surface from March of that year.
Success also signifies he has achieved 21 victories at 21 different competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a tournament with my two daughters at once, so to secure a title is especially meaningful," stated world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my child my daughter, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter Alisa was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had lost his last six championship matches, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
The player's counter-punching play style and frequent emotional displays on the tennis court had led observers to question if his skill to compete at the highest level was concluded.
Yet the athlete has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, attempting to come to the net and compete aggressively, reinforced by an better serving game.
The champion recovered from a deficit in the initial set against the challenging Moutet, securing 4 of the concluding five points to go ahead.
The pair exchanged break points in the following set before Moutet, striving for his first ATP Tour championship, took control to push for a final set.
The opponent defended four early-game chances in a competitive deciding set before Medvedev won the break to 15 to close out the victory.
Appropriately, he secured victory with a point at the net, with Moutet failing to control a volley after a lengthy match.
