The 2015 Deutz Champagne Brut Rosé Millésime is a sophisticated and elegant vintage Champagne, highlighting the finesse and expressive character of the 2015 growing season. Deutz, a historic Champagne house known for its refined and balanced style, has crafted a rosé that seamlessly combines richness, freshness, and complexity. This vintage rosé is composed predominantly of Pinot Noir, with a touch of Chardonnay, sourced from the house’s top vineyard sites.
In the glass, the wine reveals a luminous salmon-pink hue with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is vibrant and layered, offering aromas of fresh red berries such as wild strawberries, raspberries, and cherries, interwoven with floral notes of rose petals and hints of orange zest, almond, and a whisper of spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with a creamy texture supported by a lively acidity. Flavors of red currants, blood orange, and a subtle touch of brioche unfold beautifully, complemented by a fine mineral backbone. The finish is long and elegant, with a delicate balance of fruit and freshness.
The 2015 vintage, characterized by a warm and sunny growing season, imparts this wine with ripe and concentrated fruit while retaining the vibrancy and precision that define Deutz’s style. This Champagne is a versatile pairing partner, complementing dishes such as smoked salmon, duck breast, or grilled prawns, as well as fruity desserts like raspberry tarts or strawberry shortcake.
While it is already approachable for its expressive fruit and creamy texture, this vintage Brut Rosé also has the structure to age gracefully over the next 8–10 years, developing further complexity and depth.
The 2015 Deutz Brut Rosé Millésime is a delightful expression of vintage rosé Champagne, offering a perfect blend of richness and elegance that will appeal to both seasoned Champagne enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
