Deutz Brut Classic Jéroboam

Deutz Brut Classic Jéroboam is the signature cuvée of Maison Deutz in a 3-litre jeroboam, delivered in a wooden case: a celebration bottle that commands attention on the table.

Brut Classic is the first cuvée the house makes each year. It blends Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier in similar proportions, from the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs and the Vallée de la Marne. Reserve wines from selected vintages, including Grand Cru Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, ensure a consistent style. The wine ages for around three years in the cellar before disgorgement. The jeroboam holds 3 litres, or four bottles. The share of air under the cork is small relative to the volume of wine: the champagne ages slowly and keeps its freshness for a long time.

Serving and storage

Food pairing

The house suggests a sea bream tartare with citrus, tender poultry or a truffled brie. In large format, it also shines on a reception buffet.
