NV Delamotte Champagne Brut

Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 19, 2021 - From a bottle with the identifier of "L63DF131616," a side cork code of C81KY and a top cork code of "Y10" (assumed to be the predominant vintage in the bottle), this light golden sparkler is a very enjoyable nonvintage Brut. A blend of 60% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 5% Pinot Meunier, it is a light-to-medium-bodied wine with a brisk small bead and aromas of quince, white peaches, jasmine and cardamom. Crisply acidic and flavorful, it delivers a gustatory payload that is congruent with the aromas, adding additional citrus and pear elements. Solid in the middle and medium length on the back end, this particular bottling can be used for holiday toasting over the next three years. Drink now-2024.
