The power and aromatic brilliance of a Brut Rosé Champagne
The estate
Heirs to 250 years of winemaking history, Jean-Jacques Cattier and his son, Alexandre, are the artisans behind the cuvées of the Champagne House Armand de Brignac. Designed by André Courrèges, the bottles of the estate’s cuvées stand out thanks to their bold design, remarkable proportions, and their iconic Ace of Spades engraved on a French pewter label.
Each day, only around twenty bottles are meticulously handcrafted, reflecting the estate’s artisanal approach.
The vineyard
The Armand de Brignac cuvées are crafted from HVE 3-certified vineyards planted on prestigious crus of Champagne located within the Montagne de Reims (Rilly-la-Montagne, Chigny-les-Roses, Ludes).
The wine
The Brut Rosé from Armand de Brignac is made from a selection of old vines, whose power and aromatic intensity bring liveliness, freshness, and indulgence to the tasting experience.
This modern luxury champagne is bottled in an opaque vessel covered with a layer of metal. The bottle is adorned with a French pewter label, meticulously applied by hand, showcasing the “Ace of Spades,” the brand’s iconic symbol.
The dosage of this champagne is 8.5 grams per liter.
Vinification and aging
Manual harvesting. Only the Cuvée is kept for the making of this champagne to develop a soft texture and balanced acidity. At disgorgement, the addition of a liqueur de tirage made from the finest base wine of the harvest, aged for one year in French oak barrels, imparts savory complexity with pastry, toasted, and vanilla notes.
Blend
Pinot Noir (50%) from old vines.
Chardonnay (40%)
Pinot Meunier (10%)
15% still red wine completes this multi-vintage blend.
