Armand de Brignac Champagne is Jay-Z Approved

Our Swanky Wine Friday story this week comes from our friends over at Liquor Snob, who took it upon themselves to cover Jay-Z's new champagne of choice. As you may know, Mr. Z has stopped drinking Cristal after the company's managing director expressed that he was less than pleased about his brand's association with hip hop. Sounds like someone might be eating his words if the bulk of the rappers stop wrapping their grillz around Cristal and move to Brignac country - though we're sure Cristal won't end up in the poor house.

Armand de Brignac has a swanky looking label featuring a golden ace of spades (pictured) and we can't seem to get our hands on a price per bottle. We can only guess if Mr. Premiere Rap Producer and High Mucky Muck at Def Jam endorses it in his video (unofficially of course) it's gotta be spendy.
