Ayala, Brut Majeur NV

Ayala

Case Format: 1x75cl

Max score: 91.0

Brut Majeur perfectly represents the AYALA style. The Chardonnay reveals all of its purity and elegance, enhanced by Pinot Noirs and Meuniers, from the best origins. The fruit from the tailor-made blend comes from more than 70 crus from all of the Champagne region. This exceptional sourcing makes the most of the terroirs’ richness: Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, Aube, Vitryat, or even Sézannais. An extended ageing of three years in the cellars confers the final touch to this cuvée, where balance and precision coexist with finesse and elegance.

Antonio Galloni

The NV Brut Majeur shows lovely balance in an approachable, up-front style well-suited to near-term drinking. Clean, mineral notes add a sense of proportion on the fresh, vibrant finish. The blend is 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier, 80% of which is from the 2004 vintage, while the rest of the wine is composed of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reserve wines. Disgorged January, 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014.

Full and fleshy, with notes of baked apple and sweet spice. A little too sweet and a touch one-dimensional, yet refreshing on the finish.
