"The Armand de Brignac Demi Sec was once a curiosity shared only with visitors to the maison in Rilly la Montagne, France. This unique Demi Sec was created to provide a sweeter elaboration that pairs with the most exotic of foods. The assemblage comprises 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier. On the nose, there are notes of English candy, grapefruit, compote fruits, caramel, quince and brioche. To taste, the palate is abundant with crystalized citrus fruits, honey and hints of blackberries." —winemaker

"The golden-yellow Armand de Brignac NV Demi-Sec offers a nicely pure, fresh and aromatic bouquet of ripe and sweet fruits along with brioche flavors. Precise and fresh on the palate, this is a pretty sweet and fruity yet elegant and precise "prestige cuvée" assembling 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier. The wine has good grip and tension and was dosed with 33 grams per liter of sugar." —Wine Advocate
"A lively backbone of acidity balances this creamy Champagne, which offers subtle notes of pastry cream and candied ginger. Drink now." —Wine Spectator
"This is the sweetest of the five Champagnes by rapper and entrepreneur Jay Z under the Armand de Brignac Empire brand. It is a well-tuned wine—fruity while maintaining the soft aftertaste of a demi-sec. The balance is impeccable: ripe and full. In its shiny purple bottle with the signature Ace of Spades logo, it is ready to drink." —Wine Enthusiast
