Letters: About that Armand de Brignac Rosé

Good afternoon, Bill:

Can you tell me a little bit about Rosé Armand de Brignac? Sampled it last night at 1Oak in Manhattan. It was amazing.

Dear Leon:

I presume you're talking about the pink champagne Armand de Brignac Rosé, which retails in the $500-and-up (sometimes waay up) range. It's a new expression from a highly-respected house.

Armand de Brignac’s champagnes are a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes from the Premier Cru vineyards of the Carrier family in Chigny-les-Roses, a village located in France's Champagne region.
