2013 Cuvee William Champagne Deutz Rhône-Nord with bright acidsPinot Noir Chardonnay Black Riesling James Suckling 96 points: Discreet and nuanced nose, showing lemon curd, brioche and pie crust notes. A hint of savory umami, too. Beautiful integration of autolysis with the fruit. Subtle and creamy, with a really fine, nicely woven perlage that is closely knit with the zesty citrus fruit. Elegant, chalky and long, with a gentle and mouthwatering finish. There is power even it is more about finesse and elegance
