Pale pink and pale bronze but yet bright and lively. Grenache rosé in excelsius: bright red summer berries, musk, Turkish Delight, rose water, lavender, confectionary, fresh plums and a floral abundance. Aromatically alluring and unavoidable. Clean and further bright and uplifting. A side-hustle of grip and texture, but this quality - whilst essential to the overall balance - is very much off-RADAR. A water-like weight and quality, but then the acidity kicks in, drawing out this pink wine to a long finish. To drink is to walk through Spring’s own personal, private flower garden. It tastes so beguilingly simple, but rewards with myriad flavours if sipped slowly.
The palate is creamy and textured with intense ruby red grapefruit acidity driving all through the wine - it's delicate and weighty at the same time.
Complex and textural Riesling, balancing bright fruit against long acid, taking cues from the old world but sitting right smack bang in the new world.
Bright, fresh and textual style - dry in style with subtle balance between brighter fruits and savoury notes on the palette.
Juicy and fruit-forward style of Cabernet Franc, with a savoury undertone to retain depth and complexity.
Delicate yet fleshy with rich raspberry and plum flavours from front to the back of the palate. Silky tannins with exceptional length providing a long aftertaste of cherry and candied fruit.
A classic Pinot Noir: red fruit, cherry and raspberry in particular, opens the nose and defines the palate. Worthy of the price and great to lay down for a while.
Delamere Naissante Pinot Noir is beautifully rounded and juicy showing ripe cherry and strawberry characteristics.
A subtle earthiness followed through with notes of sweet spice and smoke, coming together to create a complex and very drinkable wine.
Full-flavoured yet tantalisingly light, this is a precisely-structured Champagne with a delicate texture.
Remember that Delamotte is the sister house of the legendary Salon Champagne, perhaps the world's finest and rarest Blanc de Blancs Champagne.
Pinot Noir dominant allows for a beautiful pale rose colour and combined with the chardonnay, flavours are strong yet elegant. Red fruit aromas with a good acidity.
Delamotte Brut NV is the house's take on the 'classic' non-vintage Champagne.
But classic it is not - remember that this is the sister house of the legendary Salon Champagne, perhaps the world's finest and rarest Blanc de Blancs Champagne.

Aromas of lemon zest on the nose precede the creamy mousse and citrus finish.
Flavours of baked apple, fresh citrus zest, oyster shell minerality and a beautiful citrus finish
An elegant medium bodied Chardonnay. Aromas of matchstick flint, lifted floral notes and white stone fruits are complemented with toasted nut characters on the palate. Premium fruit from high altitude sites produces a wine with precise natural acidity, giving both length and line. Honeysuckle, match stick flint, clove spices, citrus notes.
