Historia

Champagne Devaux has been part of the legendary history of Champagne since the 19th century.

Founded in 1846 by brothers Jules and Auguste Devaux, the house was then managed by three inspiring women who led the family winery with remarkable energy and talent in equal measure.
The first woman, Claude-Joseph Devaux (born Ducray), widowed at 39 years old, founded and managed the house “Maison Vve A. Devaux″ in 1846 in Epernay with her son François-Auguste. His wife, Augusta-Maria Herbin, was to become the second “Devaux widow″ following his death in 1879. She was in charge of the winery until 1895.

The DEVAUX brand quickly became successful. By the turn of the century, DEVAUX was exporting 75% of its production, notably to English-speaking countries, as well as Germany and Russia.

Then in 1907, following the death of Charles-Auguste Devaux, the third “Devaux widow” born Hussenot, took over the reins and managed the winery until her death in 1951 at the age of 80, thus concluding an extraordinary saga of “Champagne widows″. She was succeeded by her two sons.

The last in the Devaux line, Jean-Pol Auguste Devaux, was without an heir. As such, in 1987 he entrusted the future of Devaux – a brand with a prestigious past and an exciting future – to Laurent Gillet, President of the “Union Auboise”* (then supplier for the DEVAUX “Blanc de Noirs” champagne).

*Now the “Groupe Vinicole Champagne DEVAUX”

Viiniviljelykset

All year long, our partner-growers give their best to obtain the highest quality grapes at harvest.

At DEVAUX, in order to perfect our work in the vineyards, we formulated – with the help of ourvineyard managers – a new and unique approach to viticulture, a key consideration in our long-term vision.
This approach requires each grower to voluntarily follow a strict set of rules that go over-and-above the (already demanding) requirements set by the Appellation system. It is called the « D Selection  » .

Our winegrowers promise to respect the indications of the Devaux Champagnes commitment book (“livre d’engagement”).

This process has no equivalent in the Champagne region, especially because it has been applied for decades and by many people (more than 100 winegrowers to date).

Each champagne bearing the DEVAUX signature owes most of its character to the strict respect of this quality process.

Viinivalmistus

Much of the quality in all DEVAUX Champagnes is in large part thanks to:

  • parcel selection (for the Collection D range),
  • sustainable vineyard management,
  • technical support and follow-up at each key stage of the season,
  • pressing as close to the vineyard as possible.

 

This quality approach (called "Vineyard Quality Process") applies also in the cellar, where the following principles are observed:

  • ageing of reserve wines (wines from previous harvests) in predominantly oak vats,
  • use of only first press wines (the“cuvée”) in the blend for the Classics and “cœur de cuvée” for the Collection D,
  • extended ageing in the bottle following the“prise de mousse”,
  • labelling by hand for the Sténopé and Collection D special bottles.
