Champagne Hommage a William Deutz 'Meurtet' 2012 (750 ml. casket) - Deutz
Champagne Hommage a William Deutz 'Meurtet' 2012 by Deutz is a Blanc de Noirs 100% Pinot Noir 'Pure Ay', whose peculiarity is that it has been produced with grapes coming exclusively from the historic Meurtet parcel. A rare and extraordinary wine, conceived and strongly desired by the President of Deutz, Fabrice Rosset and by the Chef de cave Michel Davesne, in a 'Limited edition' of only 800 bottles. It is a wine of great personality thanks to the imprint left by the aromas of white and yellow fruit, apricots and Bigarreau cherries above all, combined with licorice. Remarkable balance between freshness and complexity, harmony and pure elegance. Intense minerality and a rich finish supported by delicate iodized notes, characteristic of the hills on which these grapes grow.

La Maison Deutz was founded in 1838 in Ay, in the Champagne region, founded by Wiliam Deutz and Pierre Geldermann. Coming from Aquisgarana, the two settled in Ay by opening a small wine shop. Firmly intent on producing great wines from a particularly suitable vineyard, they bought a first plot of land in 1838 and started producing grapes, vinifying it in their cellar. Wiliam Deutz, who had previously worked for Bollinger, gave his own experience in the cultivation and vinification of grapes and Pierre Geldermann took care of the financial and commercial aspect of the Maison. In the following years, Maison Deutz was forced to sell to Louis Roederer 63% of the property, following some failed investments in New Zealand and the United States. Over time the Maison Deutz has expanded with the acquisition of new crus, both around Ay, both in the Cote des Blancs and annually produces about 600 thousand bottles of excellent Champagne. However, the estate vineyards are not sufficient to supply the necessary quantity of grapes, so Deutz is aimed at local growers of proven expertise able to guarantee the impeccable quality of their product. With the advent of Louis Reoderer, the cellar has been completely renovated and modernized: the musts ferment in steel barrels in each of which the parcel from which the grapes come is carefully transcribed. Then the wines are left to rest in the completely underground cellar, which reaches up to 60 meters below ground level. The production process of all the Maison's champagne takes place under the control and responsibility of Fabrice Rosset.
