Wine Region: Champagne - France
Grape: 100% Chardonnay.
Tasting notes: The Delamotte Blanc de Blancs 2007 Collection boasts a sovereign achievement. The green glints of its youthful robe have given way to brilliant gold. Its well-rounded bouquet delivers on the promises revealed by time: powerful scents of candied citrus rise from the glass to tantalize the palate. How can one resist the temptation? Tasting confirms the tease of the heady bouquet: like an arrow unfailingly reaches its target, the palate remains impeccably straightforward and intact, with an acidity that is decidedly tempered but vigorous. Preceding a magnificent long finish, an unremitting ballet of delicious aromas of golden brioche, candied fruit, quince and kumquat with accents of toast and salted butter caramel combine with mouthwatering chalky notes, the Delamotte Blanc de Blancs signature.

About the winery:Maison Delamotte has been a benchmark in Champagne since 1760. Produced with great care and passion in a place where nature is expressed most openly. Maison Delamotte expresses to perfection the characteristics of the Cote des Blancs. Light, gossamer-textured, impertinent, more complex with ageing, discrete yet present, heady but not heavy, Champagne at any time, for any occasion.
