This 2012 vintage Champagne from Devaux, from an excellent and highly regarded vintage, is expected to offer significant complexity and elegance. On the nose, look for rich aromas of brioche, toasted nuts, dried apricots, lemon zest, and perhaps a touch of honey or beeswax, indicative of its age and quality. The palate will be vibrant yet creamy, with fine, persistent bubbles. Expect a harmonious balance of crisp acidity and evolved flavors of stone fruit, citrus curd, and a lingering mineral-driven finish with notes of patisserie.
Devaux Champagne was founded in 1846 and one of Champagne’s leading ladies, Madame Augusta Devaux, was credited with transforming the quality of the house. Devaux specialises in Champagnes that are Pinot Noir dominated, although for this vintage the blend is 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir. The wine has notes of candied peel, peach cobbler and apple crumble.
