Deutz Amour de Deutz Brut Blanc de Blancs 2014 (750ML)

94 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2014 Amour de Deutz is brisk, finely cut and nervy right out of the gate. Lemon peel, chalk, slate, mint and crushed rocks are all very nicely delineated in this taut Champagne. The 2014 remains fresh and full of youthful verve. Hints of apple tart, pastry and chamomile linger. (Drink between 2025-2035)" 09/25

95+ Points, Kristaps Karklins, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Disgorged in October 2023 with a dosage of 7.5 grams per liter, the 2014 Amour de Deutz is, as ever, anchored in fruit from the Côte des Blancs. The wine unfurls from the glass with a bouquet of lemon confit, nashi pear and quince, mingling with burnt caramelized sugar and a hint of smoky reduction. These aromatic impressions carry seamlessly onto the palate, which is at once elegantly muscular and charming. Medium- to full-bodied, simultaneously chiseled and grandiose, its vibrant core of fruit is underpinned by racy acidity, culminating in a saline, precise finish tinged with citrus. Whether attributable to differences in post-disgorgement evolution or not, the 2014 expression strikes me today as somewhat more tightly wound than the 2013, and it's certainly no less incisive—its character a reflection of another comparatively cool growing season, with all the attributes such conditions bestow." 10/25
