Delamotte Brut Champagne NV

92 points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "A silver straw color, the NV Champagne Brut is a base of 2019, the majority (60%) Chardonnay along with 35% Pinot Noir and a small amount of Meunier. Forward in the glass, it has a lovely intensity on opening, with wonderful pure aromas of white peaches, delicate flinty reduction with a kiss of smoke, fresh flowers, and preserved lime cordial. Medium-bodied, it retains its energy and intensity on the palate, with a ripe core and bright, electric energy. It has a good deal of density as well as a peppery and zesty mousse, with an elegantly rounded, fresh mid-palate and a kiss of bitter almond on the finish. This is a superb entry-level wine to start the range. I would snap this up for by-the-glass programs and would be thrilled to drink it over the next several years. 8 grams per liter dosage. Drink: 2024-2028. (12/20/24)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "[$71 list] This graceful Champagne is fine and creamy on the palate, with delicate notes of Gala apple, baked white peach, preserved lemon and white blossoms enmeshed with a rich underpinning of toasted brioche and smoked almond that lingers on the finish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Drink now. (11/30/24)"

92 points Claire Nesbitt (JamesSuckling.com): "Honey, pastries, lemons and grapefruit on the nose, followed by a silky, creamy and medium-bodied palate. Fresh and balanced, with soft bubbles and gentle honey notes to close. 60% chardonnay, 35% pinot noir and 5% meunier. Based on 2020 with 15% reserve wines from 2019 and 2018. Disgorged 2024. 8 g/L dosage. Drink now. (7/15/25)"

90 points Wine Enthusiast: "An attractively dry Champagne that highlights its mineral texture as much as its ripe white fruits, this is tense, with a fine bite of acidity. The bottling is young and the wine needs to soften for the full experience. Drink from 2023. Alcohol 12%. (Dec 2022)"
