Devaux & M. Chapoutier Stenope 2010 Brut Champagne 750ml

Devaux & M. Chapoutier Champagne Brut "Sténopé" 2010 is a prestigious vintage Champagne created through the collaboration between Champagne Devaux and renowned Rhône winemaker Michel Chapoutier. The cuvée is crafted to capture the character and personality of a single vintage, combining equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

The 2010 vintage displays an elegant balance of freshness, richness and structure. Vinified and aged in regional oak barrels, the Champagne develops layers of toasted bread, vanilla, citrus peel, fresh pear, praline and ripe wheat, complemented by a subtle saline character.
