2007 Champagne Delamotte, Brut Blanc de Blancs, France

Selected for its richness, precision, and long cellaring potential, Champagne Delamotte Blanc de Blancs Vintage is built on a masterful mosaic of the Côte des Blancs’ finest villages. Le Mesnil-sur-Oger brings piercing acidity and chalky, saline length; Avize adds balance and structure; Oger contributes warmth and generous fruit; while Cramant, Chouilly, and Oiry layer in smoky minerality, shape, and graceful roundness.

Composed of 100% Chardonnay, the wine is aged six years on its lees before being disgorged in early 2021, a moment that marks not an end, but a beginning. At 6.5 g/L dosage, it delivers poise and clarity—mouthwatering, expansive, and quietly profound. A Champagne of stillness and grace, equally compelling now and destined to evolve beautifully over time.

The 2007 vintage in the Côte des Blancs produced elegant, vibrant, and approachable Blanc de Blancs Champagnes, characterized by high acidity, floral notes, and precise mineral drive

"Delamotte's 2007 Blanc de Blancs is an excellent choice for drinking now and over a handful of years because of its immediacy and welcoming, open-knit personality. Yellow orchard fruit, brioche, vanilla and spices flesh out, along with pretty tropical-inflected notes that appear later. The rich, creamy finish only adds to the wine's considerable allure today. The Delamotte vintage Champagne is a blend of fruit from four villages: Le Mesnil, Oger, Avize and Cramant, as is rendered with full malolactic fermentation, which gives the wine its soft contours and overall resonance. - By Antonio Galloni on March 2015"

"Delamotte, the sister house of the legendary Salon, is based in the Côte des Blancs so it has plenty of experience with Chardonnay. This crisp, fruity and lightly toasty wine shows well-balanced freshness and poise. Drink now. — Roger Voss"

Hidden away in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Delamotte continues the tradition started by its founder. Champagnes produced with bold simplicity. They owe their subtlety to the Côte des Blancs. This terroir draws forth a rich balance from the powerful, airy Chardonnays.
