Notes
DELAMOTTE ROSE NV: The house of Delamotte was founded in 1760 and has always been located in the heart of the Cote des Blancs in Mesnil-sur-Oger. In 1988 the House of Delamotte joined forces with the very famous champagne Salon under the umbrella of the parent company, Laurent-Perrier and Bernard de Nonancourt was named President. The Chardonnay grape that they use to produce their various wines comes principally from three villages, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize and Oger all classified 100% Grand Crus. The Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier used for both the Brut and Rose champagne come from vineyards in Bouzy, Tours-sur-Marne and Ambonnay.A blend is mostly Pinot Noir, with some Chardonnay (80/20). The Pinot Noir gives the wine its lovely pale pink colour and delicate hints of red fruit - strawberry, raspberry and even wild strawberry.
