Goedhuis, November 2021
The 2014 Delamotte Blanc de Blancs shows wonderful freshness. In the glass, it reveals crisp ripe apples layered with citrus, floral and pastry notes with a hint of chalky minerality. There is beautiful balance on the palate: the great depths of concentration and power are lifted by the vibrancy and zip. The chalky minerals really shine through and make this feel so tight and poised. Some toasty weight of fruit on the finish leaves an elegant imprint and complements the freshness and lifted acidity. Bright and chalky, this is drinking beautifully but certainly has the potential to age.

The 2014 Blanc de Blancs is seriously impressive. Ample in feel, Delamotte is especially rich in 2014, and yet there is plenty of freshness to balance things out. This is an especially savory style for Delamotte, and one that works so well. Dried lemon peel, pastry, almond, dried herbs and chamomile open in a beautifully translucent Blanc des Blancs that marries power and finesse. I can’t wait to see how it ages. Drink 2024-2039.

Decanter, November 2021, Score: 94
Offering up an elegant yet bright bouquet, this 2014 Delamotte Blanc de Blancs opens in the glass with orchard fruits, verbena, lemon zest, pastry, and slightly reductive aromas. Chiselled and perfectly balanced, the palate is lively and intense, and expresses clearly the fruit and the straightforward nature of the 2014 vintage. Should age well for a decade or so. Drink 2021-2025.

Delamotte's just-released 2014 Blanc de Blancs has turned out very well indeed, opening in the glass with scents of citrus zest, crisp orchard fruit, fresh bread and wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, chiseled and incisive, with excellent depth at the core, racy acids and a chalky finish, this isn't as muscular as the 2008 or 2012, but it has real cut and persistence and should age very gracefully indeed. Drink 2023-2040.
