Champagne Deutz Brut Vintage

This Vintage from Champagne Deutz is a true powerhouse; only the very best harvests can produce a vintage! This is because all the grapes for this Champagne must come from a single, special harvest year. This vintage was such an ultimate and perfect year. The Deutz winemakers agreed halfway through the growing season that if this continues, it will be one of the finest vintages ever. This Brut Vintage is made with three well-known grape varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier, grown in Deutz's own vineyards. At ideal ripeness, the grapes are harvested and vinified separately by varietal. The harvest is gathered entirely by hand and transported in small crates to the press in the Champagne Deutz winery.

How long does a bottle of Deutz Brut Vintage mature?

After the harvest, the blend is first determined by Champagne Deutz's master blender, a process that takes weeks to achieve perfection. Every morning at 11:00 a.m., Deutz starts with a whole team, including Jean Marc, to taste the new blends. Jean Marc, the man behind Champagne Deutz, has the final say in the Champagne before it is stored for a long time in the cellars. This Brut Vintage is aged for an impressive five to six years in Champagne Deutz's magnificent cellars. During this period, he develops its mousse, translated into Dutch, its bubbles, and of course, its wealth of rich flavors. After all, a vintage Champagne is always richer and fuller in its aroma and taste.

What does the Deutz Brut Vintage Champagne taste like?

This Deutz Vintage is a true celebration. As soon as the Champagne cork is gently removed from the bottle, releasing its familiar feminine "sigh," you'll immediately notice a full and powerful aroma of white fruit, citrus, toast, freshly baked bread, and vanilla. The delicate bubbles permeate the glass, giving the tongue a beautiful and pleasant tingle. On the palate, it's even more powerful than the aroma, with a richness of yellow fruit and a nice touch of toast and vanilla. The back of the palate offers a range of impressions, including citrus fruit, marmalade, lemon zest, and brioche. The finish is intense and phenomenal.
