Located in Aÿ, in the heart of the Montagne de Reims vineyards, Ayala naturally focuses on Grand Cru Pinot Noir for its Brut Majeur and its Vintage Brut. Ayala is a “small” house, the artisan of champagne-making.
Its small size enables Ayala to produce “haute couture” by sourcing its grapes mainly in Grand Cru – (17 in total) and Premier Cru vineyards (44 in total out of 319 villages). The Ayala-blend has an extremely high average rating of 93% on the “échelle des crus” scale.
Ayala Zero Dosage is a unique wine. It is the Brut Majeur champagne without any dosage!
The connoisseur will be able to appreciate the fruity notes and all the delicate aromas which are not masked by sugar. It is a real achievement to be able to offer such a wine, as only perfect wines can be presented pure in the natural state.
Zéro Dosage is an amazing wine : round, soft, fresh and well-balanced. This makes it an ideal accompaniment for seafood appetizers, shellfish, sushi or caviar. It is also a wonderful aperitif Champagne and is perfect to finish the evening with or without a cigar.
