Founded in 1760, Champagne Delamotte is one of the five oldest Champagne houses. Located in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, in Mesnil-sur-Oger, the Delamotte house shares the same ambition for excellence as its mythical neighbor, Salon. Under the direction of Didier Depond, the same sales team, the same vineyard division, and a common cellar master watch over the destiny of the two sister houses. Delamotte is one of the few wine merchants who work with passion and respect for the environment to express the unique terroir of Champagne. Blanc de Blancs de Maison Delamotte is a 100% Chardonnay, blended with a maximum of 10% reserve wines. Vinified in vats, Maison Delamotte Blanc de Blancs is aged on laths for 4-5 years to bring out the finesse and elegance of this wine.
Tasting notes:
Maison Delamotte's Blanc de Blancs captivates with its aromatic bouquet combining fruity and brioche notes. With great minerality, reflecting its chalky terroir of origin, the palate reveals beautiful notes of evolution resulting from its aging on lees.
Pairings:
Ideal as an aperitif, it pairs perfectly with oysters and grilled fish.
