La Côte Glacière 2015 | Bottle 75cl - Presentation pack

Description

The La Côte Glacière cuvée is the latest iteration of the Hommage à William Deutz cuvée, which was launched in 2010. Michel Davesne, cellar master at Maison Deutz, decided to vinify the two plots used for this cuvée separately. This is how La Côte Glacière and Les Meurtets came into being. Two cuvées bearing the name of the plot from which they originate, two plots of Pinot Noir located in Aÿ.

The "La Côte Glacière" plot is a 50-year-old Pinot Noir vineyard on a steep slope with ideal exposure, producing generous grapes.

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

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

The nose is very expressive with floral and ripe fruit aromas, then opens up to fragrances of lilac, pear, peach, and a hint of exotic and honeyed notes.

The palate seduces with its generous presence, without detracting from its integrity and minerality. The balance between purity and complexity offers a rare sensation of harmony and refinement.

The finish is delicious and distinguished, lingering on a subtle hint of iodine, typical of the hillsides where this wine is produced.

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