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 areas in the world with a reputation quite as famous and respected as that of Champagne in France, and almost every wine region on earth has imitated or has been influenced by the careful process mastered by the wineries of Champagne. However, it is in the grape varietals which thrive in this region where the secrets to the Champagne's success can be found – the acidic, flavorful Chardonnay grapes meeting the characterful Pinot Noir varietal, and coming together to produce something wonderful in the bottle. There are actually seven varietals allowed by French wine law for the production of Champagne wines, all of which are used by wineries to accentuate each others finest points and maintain the reputation of this very special region, the home to some extremely high quality grapes.

Region: Champagne

The north-easterly region of Champagne in France is amongst the most famous and well respected wine regions in the world. It's principle produce, the elegant sparkling white wines made with a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Petit Meunier grape varietals, have consistently grown in popularity for hundreds of years, and are still the sparkling wines of choice for most people across the globe. The region is quite an unusual one, in many ways. The high altitude and cool climate make it difficult for the grapes to ripen, but it is helped enormously by the mineral-rich, chalky soils which typify the region, and the heavily forested areas which help maintain moisture in the soil and an even temperature. The wineries of the region have generations of expertise, and know exactly how to make the most of their grape varietals, resulting in the distinctive and famous wines of Champagne we know and love.

Country: France

It is widely understood and accepted that the finest wines in the world come out of France. Whether you are drinking a vintage bottle from one of the famed Grand Cru wineries of Bordeaux - such as Chateau Margaux or Chateau Lafite-Rothschild - or a more simple and affordable bottle from one of the lesser known appellations in Burgundy, the likelihood is that the wine is packed full of intense and interesting flavors, and has a fine, balanced structure typical of almost all French produce. This reputation for excellence is taken extremely serious by the French, with dozens of regularly updated laws and regulations ensuring the quality and accurate labeling of wines. Such dedication and passion for fine wine, representative of the region in which it is produced, means customers can be assured that when they buy a bottle from France, they are buying something almost certain to please and delight.
