Champagne Delamotte
About Champagne Delamotte
Founded in 1760, Champagne Delamotte ranks as one of the five oldest champagne houses neighbouring the legendary Champagne Salon. Based in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, it was acquired together with Salon by the Laurent-Perrier group in 1986 and both champagne houses eventually brought under the same management team in 1988. At the moment, Michel Fauconnet is the chef de cave for both Champagne Salon and Champagne Delamotte.-

The finest young wine I've encountered from Delamotte, the 2008 Blanc de Blancs unfurls in the glass with an expressive bouquet of freshly baked bread, lemon oil, green apple, oyster shell and mandarin. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, textural but incisive, with superb concentration and depth at the core and a long, penetrating finish. Less autolytic in style than the 2004, some 60,000 bottles were produced, around a third less than in an average vintage. This bottle was disgorged a year ago with seven grams per liter dosage.Inc.
