Deutz Cuvee William Deutz Brut Rose Millesime 2002 (750ml)

Rose d’Assemblage: about 25% Chardonnay, 75% Pinot Noir, including around 7% Ay Rouge.

Tasted in April, 2015

Colossal, gamey concentration of old vine Ay Pinot! Buttery, velvety and vibrant. 

Regrettably, vintage 2002 marks the ending of Cuvee William Deutz Rose, one of the most serious, substantial, all-time-great Rose Champagnes! Since vintage 2006, Cuvee William Deutz Rose is discontinued to make way for the lighter, more stylish Amour de Deutz Rose...

It really saddens Champagne's hardcore aficionados to say farewell to Cuvee William

Deutz Rose, which cannot really be replaced!
