Notes | |||
"The most "classical" of the Deutz cuvees is far from mundane. The three different champagne grapes are blended in equal and unchanging proportions, ensuring it shows perfect harmony. Its golden color scintillates in the glass, with a fine stream of bubbles rising gracefully to the surface. The first impressions on the nose are mellow and reminiscent of acacia flowers, confectionery, Reinette apples, and brioche. The wine then gains in volume and its silky texture reveals a successful balance between the freshness of Chardonnay, the fruitiness and structure of Pinot Noir and a touch of vinosity from the Pinot Meunier." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A harmonious version with a refined, creamy mousse, this layers delicate flavors of nectarine, white blossoms, star fruit and ground ginger with sleek acidity and a chalky base note. Firm finish. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier." —Wine Spectator |
