The 2008 Vintage in Champagne continues to deliver the goods!




The 2008 Vintage in Champagne continues to deliver the goods!
2008 Delamotte Champagne Blanc de Blanc....$99.99
The finest young wine I've encountered from Delamotte, the 2008 Blanc de Blancs unfurls in the glass with an expressive bouquet of freshly baked bread, lemon oil, green apple, oyster shell and mandarin. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, textural but incisive, with superb concentration and depth at the core and a long, penetrating finish. Less autolytic in style than the 2004, some 60,000 bottles were produced, around a third less than in an average vintage.
Rated 95/100 The Wine Advocate
