The most popular black owned “champagne” are Jay-z’s Ace of Spades and Rick Ross’s Belaire. However most people do not know that Belaire is not technically champagne but actually sparkling wine. True champagne like Ace of Spades is made in the northeastern Champagne province of France and made out of seven distinct grapes. That being said . . .
