BUBBLY WINE STYLE

The addition of a small quantity of Pinot Noir vinified in red and rosé before secondary fermentation gives softness and roundness to this champagne. It is golden rose in color with aromas of ripe raspberries and white fruits. On the palate, it’s a rich and elegant fruit-driven rosé. There are notes of fresh red fruits with a touch of licorice rounding out the finish.

ABOUT DEVAUX:
Champagne Devaux was founded in 1846 and is deeply rooted in the Côte des Bar region of southern Champagne. Uniquely, its early legacy was shaped by a remarkable line of women who led the house through its formative years, expanding its reputation across borders and establishing a foundation of excellence. In 1987, the last heir, Jean-Pol Auguste Devaux, entrusted the brand to the Union Auboise cooperative—now Groupe Vinicole Champagne Devaux—ensuring its continued growth. Today, Devaux is known for its high-quality, Pinot Noir–driven Champagnes, crafted with a focus on sustainable viticulture and extended aging. Learn more about the winery here.
