Situated in the village of Ay, it's in excellent company, with well-known neighbors like Champagne Bollinger, Champagne Deutz, and Gosset Champagne. This makes Ay the most important town in Champagne, after Reims and Epernay.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The finest champagne is from Ayala\u003c\/h2\u003e \nAyala's story dates back to the mid-19th century, making it one of the oldest Champagne houses still operating. It all began with a Colombian diplomat, Edmond de Ayala, who married a Frenchwoman. Part of the dowry was an immense estate complete with vineyards in the village of Ay. The foundation for the Champagne house was thus quickly laid. A brother of the founder was a welcome guest of the British King Edward VII. He let him taste Ayala Champagne, but it was deemed too sweet. With the king's help, the recipe was adjusted, and Ayala became a purveyor to the British royal family. Ayala is still known for its dry style of Champagne.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The best champagnes from Ayala\u003c\/h2\u003e \nAyala's style is acclaimed worldwide. The classic cuvee Champagne Ayala Brut Majeur, for example, is classic and elegant. This is because the grapes come from the Grand Cru vineyards surrounding Ay. The soil in this area is extremely chalky, which has a distinct effect on the Champagnes. Furthermore, Ayala Champagnes age longer in the centuries-old cellars, an average of three years. Finally, the residual sugar content is significantly lower than that of other Champagnes. All of this combined makes Ayala Champagnes a favorite among Champagne lovers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e Ayala Cuvee Perle d'Ayala Champagne\u003c\/h2\u003e \nEvery Champagne house has its own top-notch cuvée. From Champagne Ayala, that's the Ayala Cuvée Perle d'Ayala Champagne. It truly is the pinnacle of all champagnes. This crown jewel of Ayala is a blend of Chardonney and Pinot Noir, in which the Chardonnay plays a prominent role. They are sourced from the finest Grand Cru vineyards owned by Ayala. The Chardonnay is grown in vineyards in Chouilly and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. The bottles are aged for at least eight years in Ayala's cellars. It takes time, but the result is more than impressive.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e Large bottles of Ayala Champagne\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n What's better than a bottle of Champagne? A big bottle, that's right. Ayala offers large bottles of its classic Ayala Brut Majeur. Take the Ayala Brut Majeur MAGNUM, a double-bottle. If you really want to splurge, the Ayala Brut Majeur 3-liter is highly recommended.

This is because Ayala Champagne was a purveyor to the English Royal Court. King Edward II, among others, found the champagne too sweet. Today, the residual sugar content of all Ayala Champagnes is among the lowest in the champagne industry.
