A good wine. I was hoping for a little more cut and sizzle. While nuanced, it didn’t come together quite right. We remarked that we either waited too long to drink it, or it needs another 5 years to evolve into something else.

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

Phenomenal. Bit O' Honey, caramel, lemon curd. Decadent.

AJ 97/100 - Forse siamo arrivati un po tardi, la finestra migliore è passata per questa annata. Non che sia cattivo, anzi... Nel giallo dorato brillante, naso inizialmente chiuso che si apre su note di sottobosco, esce poi pasticceria, lieve senape, miele, un po' di fieno e bacche, perlage finissimo e lieve con buona persistenza, forse un po "corto", sapido, pieno, comunque fantastico. Lo avrei provato volentieri dieci anni prima!

Preferred this to the Salon. Super richness and length and completely delicious.
