Craftsmanship & Story

Produced by the historic Cattier family in Montagne de Reims, Ace of Spades is crafted from the first pressing only and blends three exceptional harvest years. Each bottle is coated in metal and finished by hand with individually polished pewter labels, with only 20 bottles completed per person per hour—ensuring no two bottles are the same. The unique dosage is aged for one year in French oak, adding depth, roundness and subtle toast.
