Amour de Deutz 2013 is made from vineyards in the villages of Avize (50%), Le Mesnil-sur-Oger (15%), Oger (12%), Villeneuve (11%), Vertus (approx. 6%) and Villers-Marmery (6%).
Beautiful complexity in both flavour and aroma, awakening the senses with fruity notes of apricot, peach, kumquat, mirabelle plums and very subtle hints of flowers and fresh almonds. Plenty of silky, mouth-coating richness.

“A RICH CHAMPAGNE”
A rich Champagne, with a lush, almost viscous creaminess, reined in nicely by vivid, mouthwatering acidity — a finely knit frame for flavours of white peach purée, passion fruit, toasted brioche and accents of elderflower, fleur de sel and candied grapefruit peel. Long, lasting finish.

94 points – James Suckling
Elegant and refreshing nose, with a chalky layer to the lemony citrus and fine, creamy pastry aromas. Fresh delivery of creamy mousse, followed by a nice grip of fruit and autolysis. Long and subtle, with a bright, almost zesty finish. Drink now or hold.
93 points – Decanter World Wine Awards
Inviting aromas of honey and citrus, while the palate is laced with a refreshing acidity and apple.
