Description
The purity and elegance of a Brut champagne by Ayala
The estate
The Ayala Champagne House was founded in 1860 by Edmond de Ayala and his wife. For generations, the members of the Ayala family have been committed to producing greatly elegant champagnes that are appreciated beyond borders, notably across the Channel, where Ayala has been the official supplier for the British Crown. In 2005, the Ayala Champagne House was taken over by the family company Jacques Bollinger.
The wine
Ayala’s Brut Majeur cuvée is made from more than 70 crus from Champagne.
Winemaking and ageing
Each cru, grape variety and year are vinified separately within one of the house’s 120 tanks to preserve their complete aromatic richness. Ayala’s Brut Majeur is subject to ageing on lees in the cellar for 3 years on average. Its dosage is 7g/litre.
Blend
Chardonnay (45%)
Pinot Noir (35%)
Pinot Meunier (20%).
