A Grand Cru Champagne from Maison Delamotte founded in 1760.
This blanc de blancs is a mineral champagne whose chalky sensation is maintained thanks to a blend and a selection of reserve wine (10%). This note is the very essence of the vineyard and its Chardonnays that grow on pure chalk soil.
A high-end blend of blanc de blancs-chardonnay exclusively from the vineyards of Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Avize, Cramant.
To the eye: fine gold color.
On the nose: lots of floral citrus scents with a hint of ginger.
On the palate: reveals biscuit finish and fresh bread crust.
To be served around 12 ° C. on oysters from Papin, Grolleau or Gilardeau or quite simply on a grilled fish such as sea bass or cod back.
“A vibrant blanc de blancs Champagne, offering a fine, lacy mousse and a mouthwatering palate of star fruit, grated ginger, toast and lemon pastry cream, with a streak of smoky mineral on the finish.” By Wine Spectator. 91 points.

This Champagne House was created in 1760 in Reims thanks to François Delamotte, the founder, and it was his son Alexandre who bought some time later a house and cellars in Mesnil-sur-Oger, where Delamotte is still settled.
The brand and buildings were then bought in 1927 by Marie-Louise de Nonancourt, and his son Charles managed it from 1948 to 1988.
Then the House was bought in 1988 by Laurent-Perrier and was managed by Bernard de Nonancourt until 2010, date when Alexandra and Stephanie de Nonancourt carried on the family tradition to write this House’s future.
