MASTER NOTES

TOP TEN OF THE WORLD FINEST CHAMPAGNES Celebrate with our hand-curated Top Ten of the world's finest champagnes, savour their unique history and distinct growing locations, and enjoy the delicate variety of grape blends and enduring ethos surrounding each of these iconic Champagne Houses.

ACE OF SPADES BY ARMAND DE BRIGNAC A touch of celebrity never hurts, as seen with this one - Ace of Spades. Owned by Jay-Z and produced by the Cattier family, now in their 12th and 13th generation of the champagne business, success swiftly followed. Ace of Spades does not produce vintage champagne editions, but instead blends grapes from different years, with the exact combination varying from year to year. The grape blend is an even three-way blend between Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, with the aim to achieve a consistent and well-balanced product. Each release ages in oak casks for at least one year before bottling, which creates the slight toasty, vanilla, and pastry hints the label is known for.
