Cattier Production
Ace of Spades Rose' is sold under the Armand de Brignac name by the Cattier champagne house. Cattier uses the méthode champenoise for their Armand de Brignac rose' champagne production. The rose' is composed of 50% Pinot Noir (12% is still red wine), 40% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Meunier all from premier and grand cru vineyards. A traditional Coquart press is still used. Only first press juice is used and all processing including riddling and disgorgement is done by hand. Riddling takes place over 30 days or more. The dosage is a special family formula that is barrel aged for 9 months or more. The Rose' dosage is typically 9 to 10 grams per liter. After disgorgement, bottles rest a minimum of 6 additional months in the cellar before release. The bottles are pink with pink colored labels. The House is owned by the Cattier family in the Montagne de Reims region of Champagne.
