Edmond de Ayala in 1855, son of a Colombian diplomat, settled in Mareuil in Champagne to learn how to make wine. He married a d'Albrecht in 1858, who brought Château d'Aÿ and his vineyard to the wedding, and together they founded Maison Ayala in 1860, with the brand registered with the Reims Commercial Court in 1875.
Edmond's brother, who had moved to London in the meantime and was a close friend of the Prince of Wales, asked his brother to develop a low-dose Champagne, and Ayala thus became the official supplier to the English crown. The image of Champagne Ayala is created and so is its success.
The vicissitudes of the phylloxera crisis in the 1885s, which almost wiped out the vineyard, the fire at the winery and Château in 1910, the 1914-1918 war, and the 1929 crisis weakened Ayala, which passed from hand to hand until 2005, when it was bought by Bollinger, whose winery is almost adjacent to each other and on the same street.
Cuvée Ayala Brut nature, designed in honor of the founder Edmond de Ayala, reflects the avant-garde spirit of the House since its creation in 1860. As early as 1865, Edmond made his mark with a low dosage cuvée, laying the foundations for an innovative style. Introduced in 2007, this cuvée with no added sugar illustrates Champagne Ayala's desire to magnify the purity and excellence of its grapes in an authentic way.
Blended from 55% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 15% Meunier, Cuvée Brut nature is the result of a rigorous selection of 70 vintages from the prestigious Champagne terroirs, including Côte des blancs, Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne. Carefully crafted in 120 small stainless steel vats and matured for an average of 4 years, it reveals delicate sophistication and admirable precision.
On the nose, citrus scents intertwine with pronounced salinity. On the palate, clear notes of grapefruit and white fruit combine with a mineral texture and elegant vivacity, underlining the exceptional quality of the grapes.
Perfect for enhancing seafood dishes such as oysters, sea urchins, caviar or raw shellfish, Ayala Brut nature also goes well with eXOtic dishes such as Thai cuisine, sushi or sashimi. Served at 10°C in a narrow-mouth tulip-shaped glass, this no-dosage cuvée offers a refined, authentic taste experience.
