Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, August 2022

The latest release of Delamotte's NV Brut is especially charming, bursting with aromas of crisp orchard fruit, peach and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and enveloping, it's a fleshy, giving wine...

Wine Enthusiast, December 2022

An attractively dry Champagne that highlights its mineral texture as much as its ripe white fruits, this is tense, with a fine bite of acidity. The bottling is young and the wine needs to soften for the full experience...

The NV Delamotte Non Vintage Brut is a Champagne blend originating from the renowned Champagne region in France. This white wine, sealed with a cork and containing 12% alcohol, is composed predominantly of Chardonnay (ranging from 50-60%), with Pinot Noir (30-35%), and a smaller portion of Pinot Meunier (5-20%).

James Suckling awarded this wine a score of 91, highlighting its "attractively chalky and biscuity nose, with some honey, apricots and lemon cream." He praised its balance and focus, noting the "very fine bubbles, a medium body and well-rounded finish," and suggested it is ready to be enjoyed now.

Wine Spectator also rated the wine 91, describing it as "a delicate, mineral-driven Champagne" with "an underpinning of chalk, smoke and oyster shell layered with notes of poached apricot, citronella and beeswax." They emphasized its liveliness and persistence on the finish, recommending it be consumed now through 2026.

Wine Enthusiast's Roger Voss gave it a score of 90, remarking on its dry nature and mineral texture, alongside ripe white fruits. He mentioned it is "tense, with a fine bite of acidity," and advised allowing it to soften for the full experience, suggesting it be drunk from 2023.

Vinous's Josh Raynolds, who also scored it 91, noted vibrant aromas of "lemon pith, pear skin and honeysuckle, with a chalky topnote." He found the wine to be "dry, sharply focused" with flavors that deepen with air, finishing with "very good clarity and stony persistence."

John Gilman from View From The Cellar matched this score, appreciating its "refined bouquet of apple, chalky soil tones, warm bread, dried flowers and a gently smoky topnote." He described it as "crisp, full-bodied and nicely balanced," with an elegant mousse and a long, focused finish.

Jeb Dunnuck provided two reviews, one in 2018 rating it 90 and another in 2023 awarding it 92. In the latter, Audrey Frick noted the wine's "fresh and inviting aromas of white flowers, ripe pear, and quince," and praised its ripe, medium-bodied palate with a long finish. She mentioned the blend's gradual shift towards more Chardonnay and less Meunier.

William Kelley from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also gave it a 90, describing it as "especially charming" with aromas of "crisp orchard fruit, peach and freshly baked bread," and noting its "medium to full-bodied, pillowy and enveloping" nature.

Lastly, The Wine Independent's Sarah Mayo rated it 92, appreciating its "light gold hue with a fine, persistent bead" and "bright and exuberant" fresh aromas. She concluded that it is "balanced and refreshing throughout."

Overall, the NV Delamotte Non Vintage Brut is a well-regarded Champagne blend, praised for its balanced and focused palate, fine bubbles, and persistent finish. It is recommended for immediate enjoyment or aging over the next few years.
