- Aged 10 years in the cellar and coming from the warm and generous 2009 year

- The best of their fruit and only the 7th vintage made of this wine

- Great value for vintage champagne, pair with Seared scallops and salted butter

Fresh on opening and the palate evolves displaying citrus notes and then moving to more intense aromas of dried fruit and pastry.

A wine to enjoy now but can rest in the cellar to develop in complexity and intensity

Founded in 1846 by brothers Jules and Auguste Devaux, the house was then managed by three inspiring women who led the family winery with remarkable energy and talent in equal measure. Devaux is located in a village known as Hameau de Villeneuve the far south of Champagne in an area known as the Côte des Bar, where big luscious pinot noir fruit is the hero. Approximately 100 hectares of their huge land holding is dedicated to making the house champagne of Devaux, with the remaining fruit sold to other producers.

This champagne is a fabulous start if you are taking the first step to move away from the grand-marque, big-brands that you have bought for many years. They are a well produced range of wines which will totally satisfy you and your guests at your next soiree.
