Delamotte Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2012

A beautiful and rich blanc de blancs with cooked-apple and lemon aromas and flavors and just the right amount of lemon tart and pie crust. Full-bodied. Layered and flavorful.

Pairs well with truffle stuffed chicken in a Suprême sauce or equally a simple truffle Camembert or Brie. And why not a cream of cep mushroom soup with a pastry lid.

In the glass it immediately shows its impatience. Delicate, thin, and vivid bubblesare quick to form an elegant, pale gold crown at the top of the glass. On the nose, it gives off an irresistible sensation of freshness.

Aromas of lemon, English candy, and lychee, along with a suggestion of white flowers, waft from the glass. On the palate it is both creamy and sharp and is prolonged by a long mineral finish, punctuated by a bitter orange peel.
