Champagne Ayala Rosé Majeur is a refined and expressive rosé Champagne that embodies the elegant signature style of Maison Ayala. Crafted as a multi-cru, multi-vintage blend drawn from 24 exceptional crus, this cuvée stands out for its predominance of Chardonnay, a hallmark of the House that delivers exceptional freshness, finesse, and aromatic purity. 

On the palate, Rosé Majeur is airy, vibrant, and balanced, with delicate nuances of fresh red berries, vine peaches, red currants and raspberries that unfold into a voluptuous, lingering finish. The subtle addition of a small percentage of still red wine made exclusively from Grand Cru Pinot Noir adds richness and fruit complexity without overpowering the wine’s refined character. The wine’s light pink hue and fine, expressive mousse further elevate its appeal. 

This Champagne spends an average of three years on the lees and is crafted with a low dosage, underscoring Ayala’s commitment to freshness and elegant balance. 

Food pairing versatility makes Rosé Majeur a superb choice for both hospitality settings and celebrations: from lightly seared salmon or pink lamb cutlets to red fruit desserts—this cuvée complements a wide range of dishes while maintaining its distinctive finesse. 

Ideal for premium lists, tasting flights, and special occasions, Champagne Ayala Rosé Majeur showcases the perfect harmony of freshness, fruit expression, and Champagne craftsmanship. Champagne Ayala is based in the village of Aÿ, in the heart of the Champagne wine region in northeastern France—a prestigious area known for producing world-famous sparkling wines. 

The historic house was founded in 1860 by Edmond de Ayala and has remained a respected Champagne producer ever since, known for its fresh, elegant style and emphasis on Chardonnay-driven blends like Rosé Majeur. Champagne Ayala’s winery and cellars are located at 1 rue Edmond de Ayala, 51160 Aÿ-Champagne, France, right in the heart of the Grand Cru vineyards of the region.

Winemaking
Rosé Majeur is a multi-cru, multi-vintage blend created from grapes carefully selected across 24 exceptional Champagne crus. The blend prioritizes Chardonnay (about 50–51%) for fresh elegance, supported by Pinot Noir (around 39–40%) and Meunier (around 10%). A small portion of still red wine (≈5–6%) made exclusively from Grand Cru Pinot Noir from Aÿ is incorporated into the cuvée to contribute its red fruit character. After the base wines are blended, the traditional Champagne méthode (méthode traditionnelle) is used, where the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle to create its fine bubbles. The wine then spends an average of three years ageing on the lees (the spent yeast cells), which adds complexity, texture, and depth.
