Delamotte Champagne Rosé

Moden næse med ristet hvedebrød og hindbær. Strejf af jordbær og honning i den fede krop.

Den er lavet på chardonnay og pinot noir, lidt et match made in heaven for mig. Den har den her ægte "champagne-brød-agtige-duft" og masse af kirsebær og appelsin duft over sig. Det er helt afgørende en flot champagne, som er elegant og i smuk balance - umiddelbart vil jeg mene, at den skulle på hylden i en 5 år - så ville du få verdensklasse bobler til pengene. Skulle vi lige smide lidt stjerner efter den så ligger vi på 5 stk. - jeg ville købe en kasse med 12 og lade størstedelen ligge, mit bud er, at den vil blive bedre og bedre efterhånden som årene tager til.

As the fifth oldest Champagne House, Delamotte was founded in the mid-18th century. Primarily Pinot Noir with a smaller percentage of Chardonnay, this Rosé Champagne starts off with inviting aromatics of red cherry, red rose petal and blood orange. The palate mimics the nose with red fruits and a touch of citrus rounding out this delightful Rosé Champagne.

Sweet, charming, rose perfume here with almond paste and fresh bread dough. The palate is smooth, velvety and charming with a lightly tangy core that delivers a fresh, elegant impression. Pink-fruit finish. Drink now.

Subtle cherry fruit, soft and rounded. Very easy drinking, lovely smooth mousse. 12%.

The medium amber/salmon colored NV Brut Rosé Le Mesnil-Sur-Oger is made from 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay. It has a caramelized, brioche-scented style as well as plenty of strawberry and cherry fruits, building, medium-bodied richness, and a pretty, elegant texture that keeps you coming back to the glass. It's a classy, beautifully balanced rosé to drink over the coming 7-8 years.

Bedste rosé - Denne lækre rosé blev vurderet som en af de bedste af alle de 15 champagner og fik ros for sin åbne, udtryksfulde næse med et fint brødpræg og sin saftighed og gode fylde i smagen. Glimrende til mad.

Disgorged in June 2018, the latest release of Delamotte's NV Brut Rosé is showing very well, offering up notes of orange rind, rhubarb, white cherries, pastry cream and brioche. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and beautifully balanced, with an elegant, understated profile, superb focus and a long, delicately chalky finish

Light orange-pink. Mineral- accented aromas and flavors of strawberry and blood orange, complicated by notes of toasty lees and white flowers. Tangy and precise, with strong finishing cut and lingering minerality. Distinctly elegant but shows plenty of depth and power.

Not cheap, but this house is owned by Salon and the wine is delightfully moreish. Soft strawberry fruit, lots racy mineral notes and a certain creaminess and richness of red fruit on the palate. Nicely pitched acidity beats at the heart of this dry, food friendly wine.

Co-maceration of 20% chardonnay mostly from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and 80% pinot from Bouzy, Ambonnay and Tours-sur-Marne; similar saignée process as Laurent-Perrier; aged 3 years on lees; 8g/L dosage; cork; small production of 35,000 bottles, so as not to compete with Laurent- Perrier The personality of southern Montagne de Reims pinot noir and the dexterity of Michel Fauconnet with maceration rosé are both on display here in a style designed as a simple and fresh union of the structure of pinot noir and the delicacy and femininity of chardonnay. It was first created by Fauconnet's predecessor Alain Terrier, who set out to make a rosé of cassis character. The 2013 is refreshingly and unusually elegant for a maceration rosé, a tangy and characterful expression of pinot noir, tweaked with the tension of chardonnay. Boasting a medium salmon-copper hue, the strawberry hull and red apple fruit of pinot are focused by the bright acidity and fine chalk minerality of chardonnay, concluding with gentle tannin grip. Subtle, almost savoury notes of cracked pink pepper and rhubarb accent a lively finish. The 2012 base shone with a radiant medium salmon hue and spectacular finesse and restraint of pretty red berry fruits on release at the house, but sadly quickly faded to a copper tint and savoury characters of sun-dried tomato and paprika, its diminishing fruit definition amplifying the grip and dry texture of firm, fine tannin structure.

Light orange. An intensely perfumed nose displays mineral-accented cherry and red berry scents along with slow-building spice and smoke nuances. Tangy, focused and stony on the palate, offering refreshingly bitter redcurrant, blood orange and cherry flavors. Picks up a toasty quality on the incisive finish, with the red fruit notes echoing. - Josh Raynolds.

Very fragrant, boasting rose, violet, red berry and peach aromas and flavors. Opulent, even creamy, with underlying acidity that freshens the finish and a subtle aftertaste of fruit and spice. Drink now through 2012.
