A complete stunner from this challenging vintage in Champagne, the 2008 Delamotte Blanc de Blancs is entirely sourced from Le Mienil. The bouquet is highly musty and gratifying, with toasty brioche, cardamom and suggestions of both green apple and apricot which contines to bring you back to the glass. The mouthfeel is exceedingly rich and seductive, with Challah bread, wild mushroom, mulberry and Gravenstein apple flavors all marvelously woven together. A stunning Champagne, which should cellar marvelously for many years to come.
