Champagne Devaux

Côte des BarBar-sur-SeineCMCMCoopérative de ManipulationA cooperative that vinifies and sells champagne made from its members' grapes. The wine is produced and marketed under the cooperative's own name.Founded 1846

Devaux was founded in 1846 by Jules and Auguste Devaux, but the house owes its survival to three women.

The house has kept its own pace through every vintage, and the cellar still works the way it always has: one press, one tank, one decision at a time.

Everything here is allowed to settle slowly. The wines rest longer than the market asks for, and the family tastes the whole range before anything leaves the cellar.

Three widows kept the name alive for a century, then the last Devaux handed it to a cooperative — and it became the Aube's most serious address.
