Product Description
Armand de Brignac's flagship Brut Gold exemplifies champagne craftsmanship at its finest. This prestigious cuvée blends three distinguished vintages—40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay, and 20% Pinot Meunier—from Champagne's most celebrated terroirs. The nose reveals peach, apricot, and red berries, evolving into crystallized citrus, orange blossom, and subtle brioche notes. On the palate, cherry and exotic fruit flavors meld with whispers of lemon, vanilla, and honey, while a velvety texture and gentle toast character emerge from the signature dosage aged one year in French oak. Versatile and elegant, it shines as an aperitif or alongside delicate seafood and poultry. Enjoy now or cellar through 2025.

DecanterThe nose is full of flavours and rich with notes of white flowers and crème patissière. However, the palate is crisp, fresh and delicate with a lovely creamy texture. It is elegant, refined and very stylish (unlike the bottle!). It’s a pleasant combination of power and concentration blended with finesse and elegance. While the dosage is 9g/l, it feels much drier, more like a 5g/l and this probably due to the spinal cord of acidity.

Wine Advocateopens with lovely matured brioche, toast and ripe fruit flavors. Fresh, pure and elegant on the palate, with beautifully matured flavors and an elegant creaminess I don't find in the other cuvées, the "Gold" is a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier as well as the vintages of 2009, 2010 and 2012. The wine reveals good grip and mineral tension and drinks well as an aperitif or with seafood and fish.
Grape Variety
Non-Vintage Chamapgne
Champagne Non-Vintage (NV) Champagne is the region’s signature style and represents the majority of bottles produced, designed to deliver a consistent house character year after year rather than reflect a single harvest. Producers achieve this by blending wines from multiple vintages—often including a portion of reserve wines—along with the classic grapes Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. NV Champagnes are typically fresh, balanced, and approachable, showing flavors of green apple, citrus, pear, brioche, and subtle toast, with lively acidity and fine bubbles. Aged longer on lees than most sparkling wines outside Champagne, NV bottlings offer impressive complexity and reliability, making them ideal both as an aperitif and for pairing with a wide range of foods. 🥂
Region
Chamapgne
Champagne is a historic wine region in northeastern France famed for producing the world’s most celebrated sparkling wines using the traditional method. Its cool climate and chalky soils give Champagne its signature freshness, fine bubbles, and precision, with classic grapes Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier forming the backbone of most blends. Styles range from crisp, mineral-driven Blanc de Blancs to fuller, structured Blanc de Noirs, often showing notes of green apple, citrus, brioche, toasted almond, and chalk. Strict production rules, long aging on lees, and generations of expertise make Champagne not just a wine style, but a benchmark for elegance and celebration worldwide. 🥂
