The House of Delamotte was founded in 1760 and has always been located in the heart of the Côte des Blancs in Mesnil-sur-Oger. In 1988, the House of Delamotte joined forces with the very famous champagne Salon under the umbrella of the parent company, Laurent-Perrier and Bernard de Nonancourt was named President.
The Chardonnay grape that we use to produce our various wines comes principally from three villages, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize and Oger all classified 100% Grand Crus. The Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier used for both the Brut and Rosé champagne come from vineyards in Bouzy, Tours-sur-Marne and Ambonnay.
Subtle and mellow, with an intriguing nutty aroma. It has mature flavors that are dominated by toasty, buttery components. Very harmonious from beginning to end, with a long finish. Perfect as an apéritif with its luscious pear flavors. Rating: 91 points; Review by: Wine Spectator
NV Delamotte Blanc de Blancs. Made under the same management as the scintillating perfect Salon, this is a complex and balanced Blanc de Blancs, superbly structred and phrased. It's perfectly suited to pre-anything drinks and has the balance and structure to take through to dinner. 93 points $98; WBM, Nick Stock
