William Kelley: The finest young wine I've encountered from
Delamotte, the 2008 Blanc de Blancs unfurls in the glass with an
expressive bouquet of freshly baked bread, lemon oil, green apple,
oyster shell and mandarin. On the palate, it's medium to
full-bodied, textural but incisive, with superb concentration and
depth at the core and a long, penetrating finish. Less autolytic in
style than the 2004, some 60,000 bottles were produced, around a
third less than in an average vintage. This bottle was disgorged a
year ago with seven grams per liter dosage.
