Ayala is one of Champagne’s most quietly distinguished houses — and Brut Majeur is its signature expression. Made predominantly from Chardonnay, with a carefully selected proportion of Pinot Noir from the best crus of the Montagne de Reims, it is crafted at low dosage to let the house’s natural elegance speak for itself. Feminine and generous on the nose, with fresh citrus, white flowers and a subtle creaminess. On the palate, it is refined and precise, with a long, clean finish. A champagne of real finesse for those who appreciate subtlety over showmanship. Alcohol by volume: 12.5%
