Suitcase bling

Suitcase bling

For the gross entry-level model of champagne house Armand de Brignac alone, you pay a sloppy € 250. But then you can show off this shiny 'Ace of Spades', the well-known hand-crafted metallic bottle, with which many a famous rapper (we name a Jay-Z) has also been spotted. If you got a big fat Christmas bonus this year, then one bottle like this will soon be a bit on the meagre side, of course. So go all the way, with the Armand de Brignac La Collection.

A chic wooden case fitted with piano lacquer, filled with the house's six prestige cuvées. Yes, even the rare Blanc de Noirs. It costs twice an average month's salary, but then - with only 300 cases available in the world - you have a real collector's item in your hands.

Armand de Brignac La Collection (6 x 750 ml) | €3,995 | exclusivedrinks.co.uk
