First bottle from a full case purchased in France. We've had great examples of Deutz Vinotheque from magnum, but had some concern about these 750s due to a couple of iffy notes on development and the clear glass. Poured beautifully clear, clean and straw yellow, with very delicate bubbles in an exuberant stream. The nose was a bit funky at first, but after 20 minutes or so came into its own with a great combination of green apple and fresh bread dough with some entirely appropriate oxidative notes. The palate set a good mid point between fresh and clean and rich and deep. My only real criticism is the finish could be a bit longer and more zingy. That's a small thing, though, and the overall impression is of a delicious mature champagne, at peak. Well stored bottles should give a great deal of pleasure.

Passert toppen med noen år. Moden skrinn frukt.

Ikke det helt store dessverre.
Har nok sett bedre dager.
Godt moden og noe skrinn frukt.
For all del fint drikkbar.
Fresh syre og pen finish.

Perfect as an aperitif sans food at a dinner with some very serious wine to follow. This really did a good job of setting the stage.
