Armand de Brignac's Ace of Spades is quite possibly the world's most prestigious non-vintage Champagne and a favourite of rapper Jay-Z (so you know it's good - he's used to the finer things). At one blind tasting, Armand de Brignac was voted the best Champagne in the world! The labels for the bottle are made of real pewter, which is polished and applied by hand...
Aromatic and rich with notes of brioche, creamy vanilla, racy, peppy red fruit and fresh floral notes.
Silky and very thick, with notes of toasted brioche with butter and apricot jam. Spiced and warming.
Subtle hints of vanilla and peach linger.

It's good. We got one as wedding gift and had it to celebrate house purchase. But it's not good enough for the price - I've enjoyed much better Champagne around £100.
Absolutely stunning champagne. Way past the likes of the usual suspects. Toasty, rounded, rich. Outstanding and I was only too delighted to be sharing it with friends.
Beautiful taste, love the bottle & went down great at my birthday party
The previous reviewers are a little harsh. Ace of Spades is a fine champagne that is overpriced and overrated. Dom Perignon is significantly better for almost 50% less and that is Ace’s biggest issue, along with the crackpot celebrity clientele. PJ is just as good for half the price. It reminds me of Cristal in the late 90s, which experienced a similar marketing boom followed by the inevitable decline. Cristal is also fine champagne, but Dom is better for less. I bought a bottle of Ace out of curiosity and generally consider it a waste because of the superior competitors, not because it doesn’t taste good.
Not what I would consider an excellent champagne - decent, but not brilliant. It's attraction is more to do with it's links to Jay-Z who, following his falling out with Rouzaud, now owns the distribution rights - but not the Cattier House. In my opinion it's just over-hyped.
