The Drink Aristocrat’s guide to: Armand de Brignac Brut Gold

Armand de Brignac Brut Gold

Affectionately known as ‘the Ace of Spades’, in homage to the pewter logo emblazoned on the bottle, Armand de Brignac Brut Gold is one Champagne that will look as sumptuous on your table as it will taste in the glass.

A relative newcomer to the world of champagne, the Armand de Brignac Brut Gold was the brand’s first bottling in 2006 when the company was launched under the ownership of Sovereign brands and Cattier. Featuring a heady mix of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, the Armand de Brignac Brut Gold is the flagship cuvée for the world’s most discerning palates to enjoy.

Succumbing to the irresistible temptation of the golden bottle will reward the sophisticated imbiber with something to truly write home about. Splashes of ginger and fresh apple mingle perfectly with overtones of sweet, sticky apricot. The high acidity lends a sense of refreshing minerality, but one which ends in soft creaminess.

Loved by celebrities, royalty and connoisseurs alike, this breath-taking bottle of bubbly is perfectly matched in its bold, distinctive flavours by the bold, striking packaging. In fact, Armand de Brignac Brut Gold was picked as the number one choice in a blind tasting of 1000 fine champagnes by FINE Champagne Magazine, proving that this really is a brand we should all indulge in.
