2009 | Devaux | D Millesime

The 2009 vintage is a wine of great purity and elegance, packed with ripe fruit, brioche notes together with a wonderful freshness and citrussy finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Now mature, this is rich in secondary flavors while still full of life. It has spice, acidity that has rounded into the toastiness and a fine depth of concentration.

Producer Information

Maison DEVAUX is at the heart of a family saga which began with the brothers Jules and Auguste Devaux shortly before the middle of the 19th century. The House was then established and led successively by three women of energy and talent . The first, Mrs. Claude-Josephte Devaux, (née Ducray), widowed at 39, founded the Maison Vve A. Devaux in Épernay in 1846, which she runs with her son François-Auguste. He married Augusta-Maria Herbin who became Devaux's second widow on the death of her husband in 1879. A character from Champagne, she managed the business until 1895. The brand quickly became successful. It is an integral part of the worldwide reputation of Champagne wines. At the end of the 19th century, DEVAUX exported 75% of its production. It was in 1907, on the death of Charles-Auguste Devaux, that his wife Marguerite Marie-Louise, née Hussenot, took over the reins of the company at the age of 31 and kept them until her death in 1951. His two sons then take over.
Champagne DEVAUX is now combined in the plural. Indeed, this family adventure was directly transmitted more than 30 years ago - with a long-term vision - to families of winegrowers. They came together in a project on a human scale on the model of cooperation associated with a strong demand for quality. Then last of the name and without heir, Jean-Pol Auguste Devaux entrusts in 1987 to the wine group Union Auboise, the destinies of this brand with a prestigious past and a promising future. Throughout the year, the Champagne DEVAUX cooperative partners lovingly lead the vines to deliver their best fruits. They deploy their efforts and their know-how to raise the grapes to the level of excellence required by the taste and character of a Grand Champagne.
