Champagne Deutz owns 42 hectares of vineyards, which supply 20% of its grapes. The rest of the grapes are sourced from growers, many of whom have been working with Deutz for generations. Grapes are harvested from the Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, and Vallée de la Marne, with over 80% of the grapes coming from vineyards
that are rated Premier or Grand Cru. Harvest is usually around mid-September and is done by hand, with pickers paid by the hour rather than the kilo, to ensure they do not compromise on the quality of the fruit that they harvest. Deutz farms all its vineyards according to the principals of la lutte raisonnée.
This wine has an appetizing pale salmon-pink colour, with flashes of orange, and a persistent fine mousse. The nose is inviting, with aromas of wild strawberries, cranberries and raspberries. On the palate it is fresh but has a mellow character following its three years of ageing on the lees. A long and pleasing finish.
