Amour de Deutz 2014

Champagne from France - Champagne
0 star rating 0 Reviews
Amour de Deutz is the jewel in Deutz's crown, their purest expression of the chardonnay grape. The 2014 vintage is mainly sourced from Avize and Oger and is perfectly harmonious for drinking this Christmas (though there is no rush!). With aromas of freshly-baked pastry, ginger biscuit, lemon and white peach, this has a wonderfully fine, gentle - almost silken - mousse, thanks to nine patient years of ageing on the yeast lees. Ripe flavours of yellow plum and apricot are balanced with a focused line of tension and a tangy, fresh finish.

Deutz

Deutz is an outstanding if discreet Champagne house based in the historic town of Ay, founded in 1838 by William Deutz.

Owning a significant portion of its own vineyards, Deutz selects only the highest rated grapes from vineyards in the top crus of Champagne. The production here, around 2 million bottles, makes them a relatively small player in Champagne, allowing them to focus entirely on quality.

Across the Deutz range, the house style stands out for finesse, subtlety and precision, with flavours of immense purity. They are one of the few houses that only use the first pressing (called the cuvée) which is the highest quality juice. Deutz use a high percentage of reserve wines, around 40%, which contributes complexity and depth, and the full range of permitted grapes (the Brut Classic, Brut Vintage and top prestige label William Deutz, is a mix of both pinots and chardonnay).

The wines age in underground chalk cellars, 20 metres deep.
