The wine region of Champagne Grand Cru 'Aÿ'
Iconic Grand Cru in the Grande Vallée de la Marne (~367 ha, 89% Pinot Noir, 8% Chardonnay, 3% Pinot Meunier, clay-chalk, south-facing slopes): Pinot Noir (local Pinot Vert Doré) is the signature king — exceptional body, delicate nose, incredible power and depth, signature finesse and structure for complex assemblages, the only Grand Cru of the Grande Vallée. South-facing slopes, diverse terroirs in small valleys.
The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
