Rosé Majeur

The Rosé Majeur from Ayala takes an unusual approach: Chardonnay makes up more than half of the blend. For a rosé champagne that is a high proportion of white grapes, and it shapes the style. The wine is delicate and fine, not opulent but elegant and easy to enjoy.

That makes it a versatile companion. Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a tulip glass or a slim white wine glass, as an aperitif or with light dishes such as salmon, seafood or summer desserts with red fruit. The champagne can be kept for up to three years, so it is meant for drinking rather than long cellaring. If you are after a rosé with finesse rather than power, this is a charming example from the house.
