For those looking to treat their mothers like the true queens they are, we have the treat for you. Luxurious champagne Armand de Brignac Gold Brut was the original for the Carrier Family. During a New Year's celebration in the Northeastern French region Chingy-les-Roses, they set out to create the very best champagne the 21st century has ever seen. The fruity taste of the champagne hits notes of peach, apricot, and red berry, with orange blossom & citrus to follow.

Our recommendation is to pair the champagne with either seared scallop or Atlantic Mackerel.
