Delamotte is finely balanced and totally elegant. A cepage of half Chardonnay with the balance Pinot Noir and Meunier, marked by power yet devoid of aggressiveness, crafted to deliver a clean, fruity finish. Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize and Oger are villages where Chardonnay lights up the landscape. This delicate variety, grown to the great Crus of Cote des Blancs, finds the perfect combination of soils and clime to retain its freshness over time. The grapes are hand picked and sorted by growers who have supplied Maison Delamotte for generations, treated to a gentle Wilmes press, followed by vinification and malolactic. The final wine is rested on yeast lees sur lie for a minimum of three years before release.
