Champagne Deutz Blanc de Blancs

This Blanc de Blancs is unique and demands the utmost attention from the Champagne Makers at Deutz. This Champagne is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes and can only be produced during a fantastic harvest. Because of this, Blanc de Blancs isn't always available, leaving us at the mercy of Mother Nature. However, when the harvest is exceptional, Mr. Deutz decides to produce this Champagne. Therefore, the Blanc de Blancs bottle always features a vintage year. All Chardonnay grapes then come from this specific vintage. Deutz's beautiful old vineyards are located in the Côte des Blancs region, slightly further south than the red grapes. Here, much work is done in the vineyards to bring out the golden-yellow clusters' brilliance. At ideal ripeness, they are harvested by hand and transported in small crates to Ay. Ay is where Champagne Deutz is located.

Cellar storage for the Blanc de Blancs

Because Deutz Champagne has several vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, each vineyard is vinified separately. After this, the blend is made, and that's not done on chairs or benches. Every morning at 11:00 a.m., the still wines are tasted to create the ultimate Champagne. If the result is satisfactory, the bottles go into the cellar. For this Blanc de Blancs, it's chosen to age in the cellars for at least five years. This long period allows the beautiful, soft mousse to develop, and that's what you can taste.

The aroma and taste of the Deutz Blanc de Blancs

After this long aging, a beautiful mousse has developed, and the aroma reveals many ripe, soft notes. The color is deep straw yellow with a beautiful golden sparkle. Rich aromas of citrus fruit, green apple, kumquats, and abundant minerals complete this Deutz Blanc de Blancs Champagne. The palate is crystal clear, with beautiful notes of white peaches, apple, and citrus, complemented by minerals and limestone. The ultimate experience is to drink this Champagne with oysters and/or shellfish. We're in love!
