Delamotte Brut Non-vintage A000001438 Chapoutier's effort at making sweet

Chapoutier's effort at making sweet vin de paille from raisined and dried-out Hermitage grapes was highly successful in 1991

the wine remains graceful and well-balanced

balanced and much more complex finale

and the overall purity and equilibrium flawless

I like the focused drive of the finish

Delamotte Brut Non-vintage A000001438 Chapoutier's effort at making sweetPale gold in colour, it has great purity on the nose, laced with citrus, white blossom, lemonzest and mossy notes. Its creamy freshness is further emphasised by the textural delicacy of its mousse. Many occasions lend themselves to opening a bottle of Delamotte brut agenerous champagne, clean and elegant. This is a champagne made for tenderness and pleasure, an absolute must for the cellar of all those who celebrate life.
