Delamotte Brut Non-vintage

Delamotte Brut Non-vintagePale 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.

I like the focused drive of the finish

concentrated and generously proportioned medium-bodied flavors that are blessed with plenty of dry extract that simultaneously coats the palate and buffers the moderately firm tannic spine

supple-textured

McIntosh apple

and a 35+-second finish

intellectual bouquet with scents of dried honey

spring flowers

The tannin is buried beneath an amazing amount of concentration

touch of wood

balanced and exquisitely persistent finish where a hint of bitter cherry pit surfaces

Otherwise the succulent and opulent massively-scaled flavors possess seemingly endless reserves of dry extract that make the mid-palate and finish of this very firmly structured and almost painfully intense effort appear almost pliant

black berry and anise hints
