Description
Armand de Brignac Champagne represents unmatched winemaking expertise and a true passion for the art of Champagne.
The family, owners of Champagne vineyards since 1763, craft Armand de Brignac entirely by hand with a staff of just eight people, including our father-and-son winemakers.
Among the finest examples of the famous pink Champagne blend ever conceived.
Its beautifulcolour is achieved through assemblage – the process by which sparkling white wine is blended with a proportion of still Pinot Noir wine. The Pinot Noir is picked from old-growth vines grown specifically for use in rose Champagne.
Armand de Brignac Brut Rose is announced with a rich bouquet of red fruits with delicate, smoky grilled notes behind. Fresh and full-bodied on the palate with aromas of strawberries and blackcurrant, it is lingering and complex in its finish. Armand de Brignac Rose is produced in extremely limited quantities – even by comparison to our boutique Brut Gold.
Composition: 50% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 10% Chardonnay.
Residual sugar: 9.65g/litre.
Armand de Brignac is made exclusively from Premier Cru and Grand Cru grapes from the Montagne de Reims, Cote des Blancs and Vallee de la Marne terroirs.
Each of the cuvees is a blend of three outstanding vintage years and includes a special liqueur de dosage aged for a full year in oak casks from Burgundy and Champagne.
Armand de Brignac bottles age in a gated section of the cellars, considered among the deepest in Champagne at more than 30 metres underground.
Remuage (riddling) is carried out by hand on traditional wooden racks, taking 30-45 days. After remuage and degorgement, the bottles are aged for at least a further six months before release.
