Brut Majeur, Champagne Ayala
Ayala, founded in 1860 at Aÿ, was the favourite champagne of that famous voluptuary and gourmet King Edward VII, by whom it was awarded a Royal Warrant in 1908. Hugely fashionable in the ‘20s, it rather disappeared from view, except to connoisseurs, until bought by the great family-owned Bollinger company in 2005. Since then, it has come back into its own.
I have sought out and drunk Ayala all my life and cannot recommend it too highly. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier champagne at its very best.
