Description

Devaux nous surprend avec ce Blanc de noirs d’une très grande qualité par rapport à son prix, qui se promet d’être l’acteur majeur des grands repas grâce à son profil gastronomique. Il est élaboré entièrement avec le Pinot noir de la Côte des Bar. Équilibré de bout en bout, si on devait faire une comparaison musicale, ce serait un opéra de Verdi.

L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

"Devaux's NV Blanc de Noirs Brut is a clear, bright and aromatic Champagne based on 100% Pinot Noir. Very pure but intensely aromatic and concentrated on the nose, this is a full-bodied, round, complex and persistent cuvée with good freshness and grip in the pure, powerful and structured finish. The mousse is very fine and coats the whole palate, leaving some grip and salinity. The (unknown) dosage is a bit too high for my personal taste. I tasted this Brut in November 2017 but received the sample in December 2015, so the disgorgement could be from early 2015."

James Suckling:

"Strong suit for Devaux. Toasty, woody elements with mushroomy overtones. The blueberry and red berry pastry flavors hold long and convincing. Drinking very well now."

Wine Enthusiast:

This wine is rich, packed with red and citrus fruits and with a taut, nervy texture. A recent bottling, it needs to age to bring out the ripe fruits and calm the acidity. Then it will be a full wine, lightly structured and delicious.
