Bloomberg Businessweek wine correspondent Elin McCoy featured Champagne Ayala A/18 in a print and online article, “Trendy Sparkling Wines to Get Your Holiday Parties Started Right.”
The short and sweet write up highlights AYALA as a revitalized Champagne House, and describes the 100% Chardonnay bubbly as “light, vivid, and intense with bright jasmine aromas and flavor notes of blood oranges.” McCoy suggests pairing it with a scampi and smoked salmon, both great ideas for holiday entertaining.

Champagne Ayala Le Blanc de Blancs A/18
Champagne
Le Blanc de Blancs is Ayala's signature Champagne, made as a 100% Chardonnay blend that captures the purity of chalk from both the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. The Champagne Ayala's team has long explored Chardonnay’s potential in response to climate change, as the grape adapts well to warmer temperatures. After six years of aging before release, it reveals aromatic complexity and a creamy texture. Recent vintages have naturally preserved acidity and freshness, resulting in elegant, pure champagnes with excellent potential for further aging.
