Armand de Brignac represents the culmination of centuries of tradition and unparalleled attention to quality and detail. Strictly limited production preserves our standarts in creating the world’s finest Champagne.”At the dawn of the 21st century, Jean-Jacques Cattier and his son, Alexandre Cattier, decided to create a unique and prestigious champagne. Ace of Spades Brut Gold, the first edition of Armand De Brignac champagne was unveiled in 2006. That same year, the appearance of an Armand De Brignac Ace of Spades Brut Gold bottle in one of Shawn Carter’s (famously known as Jay-Z) music videos marked the starting point of this wine’s unprecedented ascension. In 2014, Shawn Carter bought the Armand De Brignac brand. In 2021, he sold 50% of the shares to Moët Hennessy.

The first release from Champagne Armand de Brignac, the Brut Gold remains the most iconic cuvée in the range. Rich with the old-world tradition of champagne blending, it is a trio of vintages 2009, 2010 and 2012 from some of the most lauded terroirs of the region.

In 2009, the world’s most respected wine critics and sommeliers put brand images and prices aside to conduct a rigorous blind-tasting of more than 1,000 brands. The results were published in Fine Champagne magazine, the only international publication devoted to Champagne and a renowned authority on the industry.

Each Champagne was rated on a 100-point scale. The process was so strict that, if judges’ assessments were more than four points apart, the Champagne would be re-tasted and re-assessed. When the results were weighed, the top ten included many classic names. The surprise first-place finisher was Armand de Brignac Brut Gold, with a taste score ranking No. 1 among the world’s best Champagnes.
