Description
A complex and mineral Extra Brut champagne by Devaux
The estate
Founded under the impetus of two brothers, Jules and Auguste Devaux, the Devaux Champagne House remained a family-owned estate from 1846 to 1987, the year in which this priceless heritage was passed on to the Union Auboise, which has now become the "Groupe Vinicole Champagne Devaux".
The vineyard
Thanks to a partnership with more than 100 partnering winegrowers, the Devaux Champagne House has developed over the years a unique approach in the Champagne region, sustainable viticultural practices throughout its vineyards. Made from exceptional vineyards, Devaux champagnes enhance two of the Champagne region's leading grape varieties, the Pinot Noir from the Cote des Bar, which is round and powerful, and the Chardonnay from the Cote des Blancs and Montgueux, which is fine, elegant and fresh.
The plot-based champagnes, grouped together under the same name - the D collection - are renowned for their purity and their authentic expression of the house's know-how.
Vinification and aging
Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel vats and oak barrels before partial malolactic fermentation. Aged for a minimum of 5 years in the cellar. Disgorged at least 6 months before being released onto the market. The dosage is 3 g/l.
The blend
The Ultra D Extra Brut Champagne by the Devaux Champagne house comprises a blend of Pinot Noir (55%) from the Cote des Bar and Chardonnay (45%) from the Cote des Blancs, Montgueux and the Cote des Bar.
