Champagne Maison Ayala Cuvée prestige Perle. A true work of craftsmanship, Perle d’Ayala is produced in small quantities, only in outstanding vintages and using traditional local techniques. It is aged in the House’s cellars under cork for at least 8 years in bottles, allowing the development of a complex aromatic range sought-after by connoisseurs. Crafted exclusively from Grand Cru grapes, with a majority of Chardonnay and a touch of Pinot Noir, this cuvée immortalises the House style and truly reflects the quintessential Champagne terroir.
Wine type: champagne - Perle de Ayala
Alcohol content: 12°
Region: Aÿ, Champagne - France.
Grape/blend: 80% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Noir.
Type soil: the soil is poor and rocky, the temperature is ideal in summer (partly due to the micro-climate created by the local wind, the Ora del Garda): vines here still co-exist alongside olive groves.The valley is more open here and the excellent sun exposure allows the grapes to ripen to perfection.
Colour: bright and intense, with shimmering golden hints.
Aroma: complex and expressive. Marries freshness and maturity, with notes of marzipan, mirabelles and subtle vanilla and buttery aromas.
Tasting notes: opulent and silky. Both ample and precise, showing notes of custard and dried fruit. The finish, fine and long, is marked by a delicately spicy component.
Serving suggestions: thanks to its remarkable pedigree in terms of grapes making up the blend, Perle d’Ayala 2005 is a great match for noble dishes, such as seared foie gras, chicken with a mushroom sauce or braised veal sweetbreads.
Please note that it is an offence to purchase or attempt to purchase alcoholic liquor if you are under the age of 18.
