Ayala Brut Majeur

Every year at harvest, grapes from more than 70 different crus are picked by hand. They come from the best terroirs of Champagne: the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs, Les Riceys, Montgueux or even Vitry-le-François. The House's own vineyards are in the Côte des Blancs, in Chouilly and Oger both classified Grands Crus, and in Champvoisy in the Vallée de la Marne.

Ayala is an HVE (High Environmental Value) producer and has a "zero herbicide" policy, effective 2021.

Ayala works with a beautiful palate of aromas from 70 crus in the Champagne region, particularly Chardonnay from the Cotes des Blancs. The wines are micro-vinified separately in 120 stainless steel vats to maintain purity and freshness. The winery is gravity fed and the winemaking team do everything possible to minimise human intervention.

Brut Majeur is aged for three years on the lees, exclusively in stainles steel. Some wines spend a few months n stainless steel eggs.
