Three Senses
Very fine bubble, a Champagne of strong character where the strength of pinot noir is diluted by a chardonnay of excellent flesh and ripeness. Surprising is the long savory trail thataccompanies the finish in the mouth.

Champagne Pierre Deville

The style of the Pierre Deville company leads back to the essence of the municipality, Verzy, a small town of just over a thousand souls on the northern edge of the Montagne de Reims; its notoriety is linked to the approximately 400 hectares of vineyards, mainly of Pinot Noir, rightly classified as Grand Cru. The exposure of the best parcels owned by Champagne Pierre Deville gives strength to the pinot noir, maturity to the chardonnay which also does not disdain the body. Between the straits
alleys of the village is home to the small cellar of the Corbeaux family, the fourth generation as Recoltant Manipulant. Five hectares of property, all on Verzy, planted in some of the most valuable plots of the municipality
60% pinot noir and 40% chardonnay.
Christophe, the father, left ample room for maneuver to his son Alban, fresh from his oenological studies, some internships in the cellars of Burgundy and immediately at ease among the youngsters of the "new generation" Champagne. Alban's first steps could only be taken towards reducing the dosage in his father's Champagne.
Another point of Alban's: the identity of the vines and plots of origin (the lieux-dits to put it in French) from which "his" bubbles take, and will take, form. Instead, the contribution of wood is lighter to avoid oxidation that is not part of its DNA. A few hundred bottles at the moment, just to become familiar with the cellar and convince the father that this is the winning bet for the future of the Champagne Deville. Nervous and of sustained acidity, the Champagne Deville meet the taste of those who shy away from sweetness (the dosages are always very low), love wines with character and a good dose of personality in the glass. More suitable for the table than as an aperitif, the Champagnes of the young Alban have precision and great cleanliness, length of the sip thanks to the age of the vineyard planted by his great-grandfather in the early 60s of the last century.
