Opinión de los críticos

Falstaff:

Pale green yellow, silver reflections, very fine mousse. Candied lime zest, fine nuances of peach, some mango, a hint of brioche, mineral touch, inviting bouquet. Complex, taut, yellow apple fruit, tight-knit and lively, fine tropical fruit on the finish, shows good length, an energetic food companion, good certain ageing potential.

Wine Enthusiast:

Light minerality in this Champagne gives it structure and tension. At the same time, it has softness alongside the fine, elegant fruitiness. Despite its 10 years in age, the wine is still fresh, just hinting at maturity. Drink now.

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.

The Wine Advocate:

Disgorged in May 2022 and crafted from Chardonnay sourced in the commune of Avize (39%), Oger (24%), Mesnil-sur-Oger (22%), Vertus (10%) and both Villers-Marmery and Trépail (5%), the 2013 Amour de Deutz offers aromas of lemon oil, kumquat, herbs and ripe orchard fruit. Medium to full-bodied, precise and crystalline, it has a good core and an elegant mousse, concluding with a mouthwatering, ethereal finish. This is a fine, elegant rendition of Amour de Deutz. (Yohan Castaing)

Decanter:

Inviting aromas of honey and citrus, while the plate is laced with a refreshing acidity and apple.
