"The NV Champagne Grand Cru Blanc De Blancs D'Ay Brut was released as a non-vintage wine, but it comes entirely from the 2020 vintage from seven parcels within A . It displays a bright yellow/straw color in the glass and reveals ripe aromas of fresh pear, quince, honeysuckle, and chalky stones. Medium-framed, it has a refined and spritely mousse, with a crispy feel with the texture of apple skin and a note of candied lime. It™s a refreshing wine with a lot of charm to enjoy over the next 8-10 years."

"The NV Blanc de Blancs d'Ay is creamy, ample and textured in the way it balances Chardonnay freshness with A structure. Dried flowers, mint, spice, orchard fruit, lemon confit and light pastry notes all come together nicely, framed by notable structure and a clean, ripe finish. This is a fine showing for the NV Blanc de Blancs d™A . Dosage is 3 grams per liter. Disgorged: March, 2022."

"Well-cut and refreshing, with a chalky underpinning. The lacy mousse carries flavors of crunchy green pear and peach fruit, lemon pith, white blossoms and blanched almond. Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Disgorged November 2025."
