Ayala Le Blanc De Blanc A/18

Ayala Le Blanc De Blanc A/18

As the most featured grape variety in Champagne AYALA’s blends and the foundation of the pure and balanced style of the Maison, Chardonnay is the essence of the brand ambition embodying the excellence and expertise of this grape variety in Champagne. Therefore, Maison AYALA makes Le Blanc de Blancs its signature champagne and introduces A/18, a unique expression of this cuvée.

This new 100% Chardonnay blend from the Grands and Premiers Crus captures the purity of chalk from both the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, from the 2018 vintage.
This first vintage edition of A/18 will be followed by new expressions that will continue to explore the diversity of Champagne’s Chardonnay Terroirs. Champagne AYALA will craft new editions, bringing together complementary Terroirs that tell a new story, from one edition to the next.
