TASTING NOTES
The Chanseux appellation is located in the Terroir des Riceys, in the Cote des Bar. Its origin is very ancient, it is said that the wine was introduced in Versailles by a team of excavators and masons originally from Les Riceys and specialized in the construction of hydraulic works. Louis XIV tasted it and became a true enthusiast. From there it was a wine that was always served at court. The Pinot Noir grapes that are used come only from the sunniest vineyards. These are harvested at the right degree of ripeness and natural sugar. The whole bunches are pressed and vinified with a semi-carbonic maceration, the same method used in the production of Beaujolais in which fermentation takes place inside the grapes. The color is of several shades darker than the rosé wines of Provence in fact it is intense cherry red, typical color of Rosé des Riceys. Ages in the cellar for 2 to 4 years before being released on the market for the sale. The nose has very characteristic notes of ripe strawberry combined with an intense licorice, while in the mouth it is fresh, fruity and juicy. The result is a dry, full-bodied, tasty and rich wine. This rosé is a tasty, intense and very pleasant wine that goes perfectly with tapas, and in particular with lamb and semi-seasoned and savory meats and cheeses. It should be served cool at 10/12° C

Devaux

Devaux Discover the Maison Devaux and its fine Champagne in our online store The Devaux's family story began in the mid-19th century with the brothers Jules and Auguste Devaux and continued with three women who share a similar destiny and strong entrepreneurial skills. Madame Claude-Joseph Devaux , after being widowed in 1843 at the age of 39, takes over the reins of "Maison Vve A. Devaux" and run it together with her son François-Auguste. The second symbolic woman, Augusta-Maria Herbin , wife of François-Auguste, after her husband's death in 1879, led the company until 1895. In 1907, Auguste's son died prematurely and that's how the last protagonist of this particular story enters the scene: Marguerite Marie-Louise , the third “widow Devaux”. For more than a century, the brand remains the property of the founding family. In 1987 the descendant, Jean-Paul Auguste Devaux, having no children, decided to hand over the future of the brand to Laurent Gillet , president of the "Union Auboise" , today  “Groupe Vinicole Champagne DEVAUX” . Currently the headquarters and the production site are located in Hameau de Villeneuve , in an 18th century mansion on the banks of the Seine that has been perfectly restored to its original splendor. Sustainable management of the vineyards, technical support and follow-up at every stage of the season and pressing as close as possible to the vineyard are the strengths of the Champagne Devaux. This approach to quality is also applied in the cellar, where the aging of reserve wines takes place in mainly oak vats. The pressing wines are chosen for the Classics and for the Collection D , the spearhead of the production. The annual production stands at 650,000 bottles in total .
