Product Description
JS96 "Cooked apple and mineral with flint and graphite on the nose. Chalk and buttered brioche, too. Full body with great depth from the vintage. Fantastic length and depth. First released in 2020 and aging so well. Improving beautifully. From the six crus of the Cote de Blancs: Chouilly, Mesnil, Oger, Avize, Cramant and Oiry." JS Jul 2024
RP94+ "A worthy successor to the super 2008, Delamotte's 2012 Blanc de Blancs is performing very well - despite the fact that it was disgorged as recently as June 2019. Opening in the glass with aromas of citrus oil, dried white flowers, smoke and wheat toast, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a bright girdle of acidity, well-integrated dosage and a fine mousse, the muscularity of the vintage rendered with uncommon finesse. While this is quite expressive for such a recently disgorged vintage Delamotte, the rewards of even only a few years' patience will be considerable." WK for TWA Aug 2019
