Heiner Lobenberg om:
Champagne Rosé Brut

94+
/100

Delamottes rosé suppleres altid af 15 procent reservevine, som ikke er for modne, ligesom den hvide brut. Den ligger på bærmen i omkring tre år og degorgeres med syv til otte gram dosage. Roséen er baseret på Chardonnay, som er tilsat lidt over 10 procent Pinot Noir som rødvin. Den er tilsvarende vinøs i næsen med tæt, sød kirsebærfrugt og hindbær samt lidt vandmelon og sød myntete. I munden løber det hele over i Delamottes typiske kalkstensmineralitet, men roséen er noget mere velduftende og legesyg end den strammere Blanc des Blancs. En delikat kirsebærsaft med fin, mørk, røget mineralitet og tørret lavendel. På trods af sin lette sødme er den meget klar og fokuseret, typisk Delamotte.

Suckling om: Champagne Rosé Brut

The quality of this NV rosé is subtle, with such beautiful aromas of cherry, orange peel, pomegranate and honeysuckle. Hints of bitter lemon and sliced strawberry. Medium body with very fine bubbles and a creamy, lively finish. The base is 2021. Two years on the lees. Dosage 7.5g/L. Small production. Only 10,000 bottles made. Drink or hold.

Decanter om: Champagne Rosé Brut

The judges were all struck by the purity of Côte des Blancs specialist Delamotte, sister house of Salon in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. President Didier Depond believes in the ‘freshness and poise’ of Chardonnay, which here comes entirely from grand cru villages (with just 8% Pinot Noir, also from grand cru villages of the Montagne de Reims). Based on the ripe 2020 vintage, with a modest 15% reserve wines, the class of the source material shines in this exemplary bottling. Tom Hewson: Very alluring bright cherry, honey and brown butter richness. Serious, with stony minerality, dried flowers and mandarin/grapefruit. Stunning. Eugenio Egorov: Fresh redcurrants, cranberries and apples, notes of tangerine and bread crust. Rounded fruit is balanced by lively acidity, with a light mousse. Victoria Mason MW: Nutty oxidative aromas, flinty funk, creamy white peach and lemon curd. This is complex and intense, with a vibrant, pink grapefruit, tangy freshness. Persistent and elegant.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Champagne Rosé Brut

The NV Champagne Rosé is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and the rest Pinot Noir, with the base of 2019, and 15% still red wine. It pours a salmon/orange-tinged hue and opens in the glass to fresh, floral, pretty aromas of nectarine, salted orange, fresh rose petal, and curry spice. Medium-bodied, it has a wonderful chalky and pithy texture, with a pinpoint mousse that’s almost an afterthought. Ripe with fruit but well-balanced and long, with mouthwatering acidity, its spicier notes (cardamom, perhaps?) start to reveal themselves as it opens, and the wine lasts long on the palate. It is quite distinctive. Drink 2024-2040. 8 grams per liter dosage.

Wine&Spirits om: Champagne Rosé Brut

This rosé bristles with the power and grace of a Vosne-Romanée, though its color is a more delicate salmon pink and its flavors more ethereal. You can breath its red fruit in the finish, where the strawberry notes turn vibrant and mouthwatering. The structure is substantial enough to match meat dishes, or pâté de foie.

Wine Spectator om: Champagne Rosé Brut

There’s a lovely delicacy to this elegant rosé Champagne, with nonetheless fine concentration and focus to its flavors of baked white peach and apricot, blood orange peel, brioche and vanilla, all carried on the fine, creamy mousse. Long and softly juicy, with the minerally underpinning coming to the fore on the finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.There’s a lovely delicacy to this elegant rosé Champagne, with nonetheless fine concentration and focus to its flavors of baked white peach and apricot, blood orange peel, brioche and vanilla, all carried on the fine, creamy mousse.
