Description
A smooth and flavoursome vintage champagne
The estate
The Deutz Champagne House was founded in 1838 in Aÿ by two Prussians, one of which was William Deutz. One was a wine merchant and the other sold champagne. The two founders were both equally involved in bottling, disgorging, dosage and labelling, even before they owned their own champagne and vineyards. Throughout the 20th century, the heirs of the founders gradually shaped the vineyard by buying plots in the best terroirs of the Champagne region. Today, the Deutz Champagne House is owned by the famous Roederer family. The great history of Deutz champagnes portrays a harmonious style between both virtuosity and refinement.
The wine
The Hommage à William Deutz 2010 cuvée is made exclusively from the rgapes grown in the Meurtet (52%) and La Côte Glacière (48%) parcels.
The blend
Hommage à William Deutz 2010 comprises 100% Pinot Noir grapes from Aÿ.
The tasting
Colour
Deep and luminous, the colour reflects a beautiful golden hue, with subtle copper highlights. The effervescence is fine and regular.
Nose
The nose opens with delicate fruity fragrances (vine peach, quince, apricot, mirabelle plum). When aerated, the bouquet gains in complexity and develops aromas of honey and almond.
Palate
Pure and firm, the palate reveals a perfect balance between freshness and complexity which gives this wine a deliciously harmonious and refined sensation. Although the attack is bold, the palate is seduced by this champagne’s minerality, its silky feel and its aromas of yellow and white fruits enhanced by a hint of ginger. The finish is delicious and marked by a subtle iodine note, features of the hillsides from which this wine stems.
Food and wine pairing
Enjoy as an apéritif, Hommage à William Deutz 2010 will complement grilled lobster, tuna carpaccio, partridge pastilla, chaource cheese, sushi and other Asian dishes.
