The 2013 Brut Blanc de Blancs Millésimé Amour de Deutz shows how compelling Chardonnay is in the 2013 vintage. Rich and creamy, with striking tropical nuances, the 2013 is both exotic and vibrant. Tangerine peel, lemon confit, marzipan, jasmine and passion fruit are some of the many notes that develop with some coaxing. Bracing graphite-tinged mineral notes open with some time in the glass. The 2013 Amour de Deutz is one of the best in recent memory. I loved it. ... More details

A rich Champagne, with a lush, almost viscous creaminess, reined in nicely by vivid, mouthwatering acidity -- a finely knit frame for flavors of white peach puree, passion fruit, toasted brioche and accents of elderflower, fleur de sel and candied grapefruit peel. Long, lasting finish. Drink now through 2035. 5,000 cases made, 250 cases imported.

Certainly the highlight in this tasting from Deutz, I absolutely love the nose of the 2013 Champagne Amour De Deutz Millésime Brut. It sports a vibrant pale yellow color and is laced with layered aromas of pastry cream, candied grapefruit, frangipane, peach rings, and shortbread. Elegant and detailed, the palate opens to a refined mousse that allows the wine itself to shine through, with a focused lift on the finish. It is a wonderfully expressive and graceful wine to drink now through 2040.

A beautifully airy, silky style, not strict for the cool 2013 vintage, but calmly assembled with yellow apple, apricot and whitecurrant flavours subtly bolstered by fresh croissant dough and bitter almond. There’s a lick of grapefruit bitters and a suggestion of 2013’s riper, more succulent side, with some yellow mango sweetness. Delicate and appealing, with plenty of scope to add interest in the cellar. 100% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs grand cru villages, all in stainless steel with eight years on lees.

Light minerality in this Champagne gives it structure and tension. At the same time, it has softness alongside the fine, elegant fruitiness. Despite its 10 years in age, the wine is still fresh, just hinting at maturity. Drink now.

Elegant and refreshing nose, with a chalky layer to the lemony citrus and fine, creamy pastry aromas. Fresh delivery of creamy mousse, followed by a nice grip of fruit and autolysis. Long and subtle, with a bright, almost zesty finish. Drink now or hold.

The 2013 Amour de Deutz Blanc de Blancs, a delicate, charming Champagne, reveals a gourmand, fruit bouquet with aromas of ripe orchard fruits, menthol, sweet spices, lemon oil and white pepper. Its medium-bodied palate is both charming and enveloping, with a pure and salty texture that is underpinned by chalky extract on the finish.

Varietal: Champagne Blend

There are few wine regions of the world with as much influence or fame as that of Champagne in France. The sparkling wines from this special area have long been associated with excellence and magnificent flavors, and much of their success has been down to the careful blending of fine grape varietals in order to achieve spectacular results. Most commonly, Champagne wines use both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varietal grapes in more or less equal measures, often boosted by a small quantity of Pinot Meunier for extra bite. The Chardonnay varietal grapes offer their acidity and flavor to the bottle, and help with the dryness associated with quality in this type of wine. The Pinot Noir, on the other hand, gives strength to the wine, and gives Champagne its distinctive 'length' of character.

Region: Champagne

The beautiful rolling hillsides of the Champagne region of France have, for hundreds of years, been producing many of the world's most famous wines. The sparkling white wines to come out of Champagne's prestigious wineries have conquered the world, and are drank in celebration across the globe. The vast majority of the region is under vine, and grows predominantly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grape varietals, which are usually blended together by master wine-makers in order to make their recognizable and widely loved produce. The north-easterly region of Champagne has a relatively cool climate, and quite a lot of rainfall, making it far from ideal for ripening grapes. However, the presence of heavily forested areas in the region helps maintain a balanced temperature, and the generations of expertise the wineries hold clearly produces excellent results in spite of the climatic problems.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
