About this Item

In 1986 Delamotte became part of Bernard Hinault’s Laurent-Perrier group and was then joined to Salon in 1988. Delamotte gets its grapes from Salon’s 50 year-old vineyards and produces around 800,000 bottles a year.

Critics Ratings
‘This is substantially more interesting than the NV Brut Rosé with an elegant and relatively high-toned nose that offers a moderate level of yeastiness with a distinct citrus component to the very pretty floral notes that blend into crisp, intense and effervescent middle weight flavors of fine depth and complexity that culminate in a beautifully persistent finish that is stylish and understated. Lovely stuff that could be enjoyed now or held for a few more years.’ – Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92/100 (2009)
