Valentine’s Day is around the corner.

Which begs the question…ARE YOU READY?

If you’re like me, or most men, you haven’t even thought about it. Let’s flip the script this time, get ahead of the game, and lock down an absolute SURE BET.

Be it the Blanc de Blancs or the Rosé, NOTHING says I LOVE YOU like a bottle of Amour.

Deutz, as under the radar as it may be, is one of the most prestigious Champagne houses, and is a sister property to Louis Roederer. Amour de Duetz is the Tête de Cuvée as Cristal is to Roederer, representing the absolute best of a vintage from their top vineyards in Vru villages, in 2011 it’s from Avize, Le Mesnil, Oger, Villeneuve, Vertus, and Villers-Marmery.

Hear us out. And if you need some more sway, hear Antonio Galloni of Vinous when he says “I was quite impressed with the wines I tasted from Deutz… all of these wines deserve attention. The Deutz style is best described as classic… impeccably made and absolutely delicious.”

Delicious does not even begin to describe what awaits in a glass of this 100% pure Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs. Brioche, lemon rind, dried pear, smoke, crystallized ginger, almonds, and jasmine, are laced with striking depth and resonance. Like love, it starts subtly, seemingly out of nowhere, and builds up to a finish that just does not want to quit. Feels eternal, or at least you want it to be so.

Need a second bottle? We got you.

Check out the Brut Rosé we have too and grab what you can of the 24 bottles of each we got. Then take your time, on the day of and melt some Valrhona chocolate to dip fresh berries in it. DON’T get the ready-made stuff. And even more importantly, feel free to omit that you paid less than the $240 retail on it.

Oh, and make sure you opt out of temperature-controlled shipping to assure they arrive by V-Day!

Love may be everlasting, but these won’t.

96 Points, Cellar Selection – Wine Enthusiast “A mature Champagne from a great vintage year, this is concentrated. With toast over the white fruits and with minerality still very present, the wine is taut, textured, vibrant, and ready to drink.”

96 Points – Falstaff “Brilliant golden yellow, green reflections. Fine aroma of biscuit, marzipan and hints of Mirabelle plum, yellow plum, some white peach and a touch of acacia blossom. Powerful, mineral palate appeal, depth of extract, supple, fine acidity, extremely tightly woven texture with nutty and fruity tones of pink grapefruit, some ginger savoriness. Holds the tension in the big, long lingering finish. Touching, brilliant, profound elegance.”
