Onion skin veering to pink color for this stylishly presented wine from Ayala, now owned by Bollinger. It has some fresh raspberry fruits, but goes further with its seriously crisp, dry acidity and delicate, elegant balance with structure and mature flavors. 1 Note

“Zéro Dosage” means just that; the resulting wine is very dry. It has great crisp, piercing grapefruit freshness, with hints of nuttiness and a lively final acidity. Some bottle age should help tame it. 1 Note

A beautifully balanced non-vintage, in the lighter style that is Ayala’s hallmark. It is fresh, but shows a good amount of blend with older wines to give weight and complexity. The green fruit flavors are well balanced with secondary aromas of almonds, green berries and lively, but not dominant acidity. 1 Note

For lovers of light, fresh apéritif style Champagnes, this Ayala is ideal. Its hints of apricots and ripe green plums still don’t detract from the fact that it is dry, with only a light hint of dosage and fresh yeast. It does seem that the blend is getting younger so a few months’ bottle aging would be good. 1 Note

Aromas of dried fruits infuse this sweeter style of Champagne. The fruits are perfumed, hinting at honey and pineapple, but the wine balances these richer flavors with fine acidity that gives it shape and balance. 1 Note

Yes, it is dry, but its dryness makes this crisp pink grapefruit-flavored wine great with food. The acidity shocks initially, but then the ripe fruit asserts itself. The wine fills the mouth with waves of freshness, green plums and citrus zest. 1 Note
