Ayala Brut Majeur NV
96 Points - Cameron Douglas, MS. Ayala Brut Majeur NV is the house’s signature non-vintage Champagne, highly rated and excellent value. Predominantly Chardonnay with a touch of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, it delivers bright citrus, green apple, and subtle brioche notes. Ideal as an aperitif, with fresh seafood, light poultry, or simply to enjoy with friends — a Champagne you’ll reach for again and again.
Taste
The nose shows green apple, pear, lemon zest, and gentle floral hints. On the palate, fresh citrus and white peach mingle with subtle brioche and a fine, creamy mousse. A mineral-driven finish keeps it lively and precise. Approachable now, yet structured enough to develop further complexity with a few years’ cellar ageing.

96 Points - Cameron Douglas, MS
"Complex, fresh, layered and classic, a fascinating bouquet with layers of sweet citrus and a deep centered autolysis, white strawberry and white fleshed stone fruits. A delicious wine on the palate with fine a mousse texture, a whisper of white spice and white stone fruits. The acid line is perfect carrying flavours and highlighting the complexities of autolysis. Delicious and lengthy with best drinking from day of purchase through 2032. Outstanding value!"
