La Côte Glacière 2015 | Bottle 75cl - Presentation pack

Description

La Côte Glacière is the latest iteration of the cuvée Hommage à William Deutz inaugurated in 2010. Maison Deutz cellar master Michel Davesne decided to vinify the two parcels used for this cuvée separately. Thus were born La Côte Glacière and Les Meurtets. Two cuvées named after the parcels from which they are made, both Pinot Noir parcels located in Aÿ.

The "La Côte Glacière" parcel is a fifty-year-old Pinot Noir vineyard on a steep, ideally exposed slope, yielding generous grapes.

This Blanc de Noirs was vinified in vats, then dosed as Brut before developing its aromatic bouquet in the cellar for nearly 7 years. This is a generous, opulent cuvée.

The color is light, blending golden yellow with subtle copper accents.

The nose is very expressive, with floral and ripe fruit aromas, followed by lilac blossom, pear and peach fruit and a hint of exotic honey.

The palate seduces with its generosity, without offsetting its straightforwardness and minerality. The balance between purity and complexity offers a rare sensation of harmony and refinement.

The gourmet, distinguished finish lingers on a fine iodine note, typical of the hillsides from which this wine comes.

La Côte Glacière 2015 is the perfect accompaniment to grilled lobster, tuna carpaccio, partridge pastilla and soft cheeses.
