- Tasting Note:
Lovely pale gold in colour, with a fine, persistent mousse indicative of the long period of bottle ageing. On the nose, L’Ultra D Devaux is nicely developed but still fresh, with notes of hazelnuts and spice. On the palate the low dosage allows the quality of the Pinot Noir fruit to shine through, with hints of ripe pear and more hazelnut. A long, fresh finish seals the wine’s appeal.

Devaux is the brand bought and developed by the Union Auboise. It is a dynamic enterprise located in the southern part of Champagne and one of the biggest vineyard holders in the region, with 1,450 hectares of vineyard in the Aube and the Côte des Blancs. Devaux’s control over
its grape supply is a rarity in Champagne, whereby contracts held with a number of top houses in Champagne allows the company to reserve the best grapes. The Devaux style is dictated by its location, as Pinot Noir is the main grape variety planted in the Aube. The wines possess a
lovely Pinot Noir richness on the nose and a long finish, yet offer finesse, freshness and liveliness from the finest Chardonnay rich soils of the Côte des Blancs. The dosage is low due to the high quality of the fruit.
