Winemaker Notes
The intense golden appearance is topped with a mousse of great finesse – the Deutz signature – characteristic of wines having benefited from long maturation on the lees. On the nose, the wine initially displays floral notes (hawthorn blossom, white flowers), followed by aromas of toast, marzipan and ripe fruits (apples, pears). In the mouth, the freshness of the Chardonnay and the richness of the Pinot Noir enhance the wine’s full-bodied elegance, presenting a wine with finely integrated aromas and a silky texture. The wine is well-rounded with an intensely fruity finish.

James Suckling
Very attractive nose of lemon blossom, tarte au citron and lemon curd. Very elegant and delicate with an inner strength that doesn't make this at all loud. I love the interplay of the fine mousse and citrusy fruit on the medium-bodied palate. Long finish with subtle spicy notes. 39% chardonnay, 31% pinot noir and 30% pinot meunier. Based on the 2019 vintage with 53% reserve wine. Drink now.

COMMENTARY: The Champagne Deutz Brut Classic is excellent from start to finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine shows aromas and flavors of chalk, dried apples, and earth. Enjoy its palate staying power with pan-fried Petrale sole in a savory cream sauce. (Tasted: April 27, 2022, San Francisco, CA)

Ripe apple, toast point, preserved lemon and honeycomb aromas and flavors lead the way in this elegant version. Featuring a lacy mousse and a bright spine of well-meshed acidity. The pretty flavor range transitions to chalky minerality on the finish. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Drink now

The wine’s dosage is finely balanced with the ripe fruits and textured fruits. This bottling is just the right age, poised between crispness and a more toasty edge. Drink this beautifully controlled Champagne now.

A vibrant silver/straw color, the NV Champagne Classic Brut is a charming introduction to the range from Deutz, taking on a dewy and springy style, with aromas of honeydew melon, guava, fresh lily, and wet stones. Medium-bodied, with an energetic mousse and a clean, refreshing lift on the finish, its classic aperitif style is welcoming and begs to be enjoyed in its youth.
Since 1838, Champagne Deutz, one of the oldest members of the former and prestigious Association of Grandes Marques, has been making champagnes of a distinctive style characterized by a perfect harmony of finesse, elegant vinosity and complexity.
Sourcing from 300 hectares (approx. 615 acres) of vineyards, amongst the finest of Champagne’s crus, as well as a rigorous selection of the choice bunches, allow Deutz to use only top quality grapes.
The wines are slowly and carefully aged in the cool hush of the 3 kilometres of the House cellars which have been carved in the chalky soil of the famous historic village of Aÿ.
The “DEUTZ trio Prestige” comprises three prestige cuvées, each with its very distinct personality. William Deutz is made from the best pinots and chardonnays; Amour de Deutz is composed uniquely of the finest chardonnays ; finally there is Amour de Deutz Rosé. In each of these styles, Maison DEUTZ shows the full extent of its know-how and its attachment to precise, finely-tuned wines.
Each blend, from the renowned Deutz Brut Classic, is recognized for its high quality and remarkable consistency. Year after year, each of them epitomizes the expertise and the passion of Maison Deutz for its finely-tuned champagnes.
