Tasting Notes
Devaux Cuvee D 2008 Magnum
The Cuvee D's of Devaux are the expression of what is the pinnacle of their efforts. Only the best sites are selected, which are then given lavish care throughout the growing season, and constantly judged and inspected. Harvested at their very optimum to display their finest qualities which is then judiciously blended with barrel aged reserve wines to create a veritable "Grand Champagne".
Pinot Noir (Côte des Bar) 50% - Chardonnay (Côte des Blancs) 50%
Deep gold in color with tints of straw. Subtle and elegant aromas of white peaches and citrus zest followed by light brioche notes. Fresh on opening, the palate evolves elegantly towards citrus notes finishing on intense notes of dried fruit and pastry.
A wine to enjoy now or can rest in the cellar to develop in even more complexity and intensity.
Key aromas: white peach, citrus fruit, warm bead
