Armand de Brignac 'Ace of Spades' Brut Rosé, MV
Please note that this champagne is offered without gift box. Armand de Brignac, often referred to as the "Ace of Spades" due to its iconic bottle design, is a prestigious Champagne brand produced by the Cattier family, since 1763, in the Montagne de Reims region. Their Champagnes are crafted from a blend of three vintages, combining freshness, depth, and complexity. Featuring a high percentage (55%) of Pinot Noir, the Brut Rosé has a balanced, creamy texture with notes of red berries, citrus, and hints of blackcurrant, complemented by soft tannins and a crisp acidity. Enjoy it as an apéritif or pair with truffled veal, duck confit, or seafood, and wild salmon.
Taittinger, Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs Brut, (Magnum) 2014
The 2014 Comtes de Champagne is Chardonnay at its best. Only the finest fruit made it in, so quantities are way down compared to 2013, but the quality is superb. It’s the last of a run of cooler vintages in Champagne and already being hailed as a must-have for Champagne lovers. Taittinger itself has a long backstory. Founded in 1734, it was taken on by Pierre Taittinger in 1931 after his WWI service in the region, and unusually for a big name, it’s still family-run today by Pierre’s great-grandchildren, Vitalie and Clovis. The cellars in Reims sit on 4th-century chalk caves that once belonged to Benedictine monks, and the deep cool conditions are spot-on for ageing Champagne slowly and gracefully. Comtes de Champagne is the jewel in the crown: crafted only in the best years, from the first pressings, and aged for a full decade deep underground before release. Presented in elegant antique-style bottles, it’s one of the most iconic Blanc de Blancs in Champagne.
