Deutz Brut Vintage Millésimé 2018

Deutz Brut Vintage Millésimé 2018 is a prestigious Champagne, recognised for its elegance, precision and complex, food-friendly profile. Made by the historic house of Champagne Deutz in Aÿ, it reflects the ideal weather of the 2018 harvest, which gave perfect, balanced ripening.

Renowned critic James Suckling gave 93/100 points to the 2018 Deutz Brut Vintage Millésimé.

This sparkling wine stands out for its fresh, expressive aromatic profile, dominated by pure green apple and delicate citrus notes of lemon zest. The mineral component is well defined, with a characteristic chalky feel, complemented by subtle hints of fine pastry evoking brioche and puff pastry.

On the palate it's light and extremely elegant, supported by vibrant acidity that gives great freshness. Very fine, persistent bubbles reinforce its sophistication and balance.

The finish is refined and harmonious. Although it shows excellent precision and delicacy, it would need more depth to score higher. A wine that gives immediate pleasure but can also develop well in the cellar.

Tasting Note: Deutz Brut Vintage Millésimé 2018

The 2018 Deutz Brut Vintage Millésimé received 93 out of 100 from the US magazine Wine Spectator, showing a slight preference over other editions from the house.

In the glass it shows a particularly harmonious expression, supported by a creamy, enveloping mousse that adds depth and texture. The tasting highlights the remarkable balance between vibrant acidity and a marked mineral component, giving precision and elegance.

The aromatic profile combines ripe pear and baked apple with nuances of blanched almond. Complexity is enriched by delicate hints of grated ginger, oyster shell and verbena, adding freshness and sophistication.

Although already drinking beautifully, it has the structure and potential to keep developing well in the cellar until 2035.
