The balance between the dominant Pinot Noir and the smaller percentage of Chardonnay in the Delamotte Rosé gives this wine its beautiful pale rose color. The wine has tiny bubbles with strong red fruit aromas and flavors. It is vivacious, supple and round with a hint of acidity. It makes a wonderful aperitif, as well as a good companion to poultry dishes or red fruit desserts.
"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."

"Pale salmon-skin color. Zesty redcurrant and pomegranate aromas are complemented by white flowers and chalk. Finely etched red berry and pink grapefruit flavors are refreshingly bitter but gain flesh with air. A deeper note of bitter cherry lingers on the nervy, persistent finish. This year's releases deliver more vivacity than I've seen from this house in a while."
International Wine Cellar
"Salmon pink in color, this is a zesty, red-fruited Champagne. The texture feels generous, its fruit sweetness balanced by firm salinity. A discreet rosé to serve with crab."

"The NV Brut Rose is a sinewy, taut wine laced with perfumed, energetic fruit. As delicious as the wine is, it is also clearly deeply informed by the Chardonnay of Mesnil, and I really wonder about the rationale behind a rose from a village that is so famous for its Chardonnays. To be sure, Delamotte’s rose is a pretty, harmonious wine, but at the top level, there is simply too much competition from houses with vineyards better suited to making top-class rose. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2014."
