The 1999 Delamotte is a fine Champagne for drinking right now. Honeysuckle, nuts, apple. A fine fizz from mini-Salon. — 12 days ago

This highly perfumed, mineral-driven Spanish bubbly shows wonderful clarity and tension, with no excess weight. Emphatically dry and lively in style, the 2016 offers powerful citrus and orchard fruit character, a suave floral note and impressive, stony persistence. $24.00 (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, April 2019) — 15 days ago

9.0

A young 2014 - Closed with green apples upon opening. Decanted 1 hr: White flowers, honeysuckle, limestone, chalk. Soft attack with a smacking transition to the mid-palette where acidity is moderate. Palette is of key lime pie. Finish is medium in length. I would bottle age this wine to bring out more oxidative notes and openness. Too young to really enjoy now. — 12 days ago
