Champagne Ayala - Le Blanc de Blancs 2013


Guide VERON des Champagnes 2021
(around 52 euros per bottle)





Aspect:

Golden, brilliant.

Festive farandole of delicate bubbles.

Nose:

Heady and endless elegance.

The Chardonnay, exclusive varietal of the cuvée, carefully harvested by hand in 2013 in the premiers and Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs, illustrates its full worth, between radiant fragrances of citrus fruits and white fruits and iodine and fresh mint touches.
Palate:

Beautiful vitality at the opening, highlighted by the minerality of the chalk.

The well-defined balance gently establishes itself, creamy caress coupled with notes of honey and pastries, translations of the generous maturity obtained by 5 years of ageing on laths of the bottles before riddling and disgorgement.

With this cuvée Le Blanc de Blancs 2013, Caroline Latrive, cellar master of the Champagne house Ayala, reveals the quintessence of the Chardonnay in its best terroirs.
