US rapper Jay-Z is launching the Blanc de Noirs Assemblage No. 4 champagne with his Armand de Brignac champagne brand. The champagne is a cuvée of the 2013, 2014 and 2015 vintages and is said to cost around 1,150 euros. Only 7,328 bottles will be available worldwide. Each metallised bottle is marked with an individual number as well as the disgorgement date. The bottles were all finished by hand, provided with a label made of French pewter and then polished by hand. The finished wine matured in the cellar for seven years until it was disgorged in April 2023.
The cuvée is intended to show the evolution of Armand de Brignac's first Blanc de Noirs, Assemblage No. 1, from 2015. Blanc de Noirs Assemblage No. 4 will be available from 2024 as a 0.75 litre single bottle at selected retailers in the UK, as well as globally.
The Armand de Brignac brand was launched by Jay-Z in 2006. The champagne itself is produced by the Maison Cattier champagne house. In 2021, Moët Hennessy partnered with Jay-Z to acquire a 50 per cent stake in the brand.
