Guide VERON des Champagnes 2020
(around 150 euros per bottle)
Mythical champagne
Refined presentation. Bottle with a narrow ring, guarantee of a
champagne exclusively produced by the house.
Aspect:
Gold,
brilliant.
Bubbles
of a rare finesse.
Fine
bead of foam.
Nose:
Heady
and endless aromatic universe.
The
Chardonnay, exclusive varietal, takes us into an outstanding whirl of selected
scents, between white fruits, nice ripe citrus fruits and delicate white
flowers, enhanced by an iodized and mentholated breath.
Later,
the cuvée affirms its radiant
fullness with captivating touches of liqueur and pastries, result of 8 years of
ageing on laths of the bottles before riddling and disgorgement.
Palate:
Brilliant
purity thanks to the rigorous selection of the first juices (cuvée) during the soft pressing of the
grapes, driven by the vertiginous minerality of the chalk of the majority of
Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs (49% Avize and 40% Le Mesnil-sur-Oger),
completed by Villers-Marmery (6%) and Villeneuve-Renneville (5%).
Remarkable
presence supported by the delicious tension and the adjusted effervescence,
lively and creamy.
Endless
finish, with a joyful vitality and punctuated by soft spices.
For this cuvée Amour de Deutz
2009, Michel Davesne, cellar master of the Champagne house Deutz, was able to
soak up the vintage to compose a new unforgettable interpretation of this
emblematic cuvée.
Ideal
partner for your intimate moments, from aperitif to meal, with a grilled
pollack and yuzu, for example.
Founded
in Aÿ in 1838 by William Deutz and directed by Fabrice Rosset, CEO since 1996,
the Champagne house Deutz is based on its partner wine growers to cultivate 245
hectares of the greatest terroirs of
Champagne of which 42 hectares are the property of the house, in a
continuing effort to reduce the environmental footprint. A tailor-made
vinification, in small volumes, to better reveal each of the Crus (80% of
Grands Crus and Premiers Crus), enables Michel Davesne to establish each year
the inimitable style of the house.
