"Open and expressive, the latest NV Brut Classic from Deutz offers up aromas of green pear, peach, pastry cream and flowers. Medium to full-bodied and fleshy but precise, it's elegant and charming, with a seamless profile and considerable immediate appeal." —Robert Parker

Decanter

90 points

"Superbly appetising floral, peach and patisserie aromas. Opens to a honeyed mouth, with crystallised ginger, golden peaches and nutmeg. Medium finish."

Wine Spectator

92 points

"This bright and stylish Champagne is tightly knit and satiny in texture, with hints of smoke and pastry cream underscoring the apricot, lemon curd and pickled ginger flavors. Ends with a mouthwatering finish."

Wine Enthusiast

90 points

"The elegance of this nonvintage cuvée sums up the style of the house, balancing acidity with a dosage that is just right. The white fruits and tangy edge are refreshing and intense."

More about

The Grower Champagne movement has encouraged us to explore Champagne’s many regions, villages and vineyard sites. Meanwhile, Champagne houses – good ones like Deutz – offer a slightly different kind of adventure, and it is one that we highly recommend embarking on.

Deutz was not always a great Champagne house. Although famous back in the 19th century, at the end of the 20th century it was yet another medium-sized house churning lackluster Champagnes for supermarkets. Then it was purchased by the same family that owns Louis Roederer – perhaps the best of the big houses -- and everything changed. Investment money came in, and rigorous production methods were introduced. Deutz is now considered one of the top houses by in-the-know Champagne lovers.

So what adventure can it offer? An exploration of an attractive and unique “house style”. That is what the great houses offer: not necessarily a terroir-specific wine (though they are increasingly producing single-vineyard wines), but rather a specific philosophy and style.

The Deutz philosophy is expressed in its wine-making. First, there is a very slow, low-temperature fermentation. Malolactic fermentation is allowed to proceed naturally. The wines are never aged in oak barrels, resting only in steel cuves (or in bottle). This method is a bit unusual, but quite traditional, and actually very similar to what they do at Billecart-Salmon.

The style combines fresh elegant fruit, easy drinkability and vinosity. Deutz thinks of their Champagnes as wines to enjoy with a meal.
