Avaliação dos peritos

The Wine Advocate :

The recently released 2009 Brut Rosé Millésime Amour de Deutz is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with a classy bouquet of citrus oil, crisp red apple, warm brioche, sourdough bread and dried rose petals. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, fine-boned and elegant, with racy acids, a pretty core of fruit, a delicate mousse and a deceptively long finish. Understated but displaying terrific finesse, this wine exemplifies the Deutz style. (William Kelley)

Wine Enthusiast:

This is one of two prestige cuvées from this house, under the same ownership as Roederer Champagne. Always a seductive wine, this vintage has excelled itself. Its poise, restrained elegance and fragrant fruitiness are impeccable. Acidity, red fruits and a crisp texture are all present. Let the wine age and drink from 2022. (Roger Voss)

Falstaff:

Bright salmon pink, silver reflections, fine, persistent mousse. Delicately scents of tangerine and orange zest, a hint of red forest berry jam, minerality , fine nuances of blossom honey. Full-bodied, expressive, elegant, a hint of strawberry jam and peach, pleasant acidity, delicate sweetness also on the finish, very good length, ripe orange reverberation, good ageing potential.

James Suckling:

The peach and lemon-rind aromas are very impressive on the nose. Some raspberry sorbet. Medium to full body. Shows depth and focus. Lots of flavor. Hints of apple underneath. Drink now.

Decanter:

Just 1,200 bottles of this prestige cuvée were made in 2009, a blend of 57% Pinot Noir from vineyards in Ay, Verzenay, Ambonnay and Bouzy. The 43% Chardonnay comes from Avize, Mesnil sur Oger, Chouilly and Villers-Marmery. Its gorgeous colour comes from the inclusion of 6% Pinot Noir still wine, produced by Deutz from plots of old vines on the Ay hillside known as ‘La Belle’, as well as from plots in Mareuil-sur-Ay called ‘Cumaine’ and ‘Charmont’. Classically styled, Deutz's savoir-faire has delivered an elegantly vinous rose with sweet, bright strawberry and redcurrant fruits juxtaposed with savoury toast and brioche. As always, its very pure and precise with a ripe, moreish texture in perfect counterpoint to the fresh, tingling acidity. A lovely benchmark expression of fine rosé, with great versatility to work as an aperitif or with food. (John Stimpfig)
