Tasting notes:

Made with 43% reserve wines, their zero dosage is vinified in new stainless-steel vats and aged for 3 years on the lees to add texture. Elegant aromas of citrus, white fruits and notes of saltiness and toasted brioche. Complex and clean with great purity of fruits and minerals on the finish.

Producer description:

Founded in 1860 by Edmond de Ayala, Ayala is an independent, family-owned champagne house nestled in Aÿ, in the heart of the Grands Crus. Today, it is owned by the Bollinger family who built a state-of-the-art winery, allowing Ayala to offer wines with a great purity of style. Ayala has always been a pioneer in the creation of low-dosage Champagnes. They use a high proportion of Chardonnay and vinify each plot they harvest separately before creating their blend. This, combined with an extensive ageing on the lees (from 3 to 12 years) make Champagne Ayala stand out. Expressive, precise and harmonious, their wines show great purity and freshness.

Critic Scores

Decanter | 94

The zero-dosage sibling of Ayala’s Brut Majeur shows the maison’s signature filigree aromatics and soft minerality in crystalline fashion. Oyster-shell salinity and acid verve underpin the crispy pear, green apple and white grapefruit aromas. Subtle seam of linden and hay. Lovely crunch, drive and complex purity.

A dry Champagne with apricots, figs, praline, chalk, lemons and pastries on the nose. Light-to medium-bodied with sharp acidity and fine bubbles. Focused and mineral with some toasted walnut to close. Chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier. Drink now.
