Blanc de Blancs Half Bottle

The half bottle offers Delamotte's Blanc de Blancs in a 37.5 cl format. It is practical when you are drinking for two, or when you want to open a champagne of standing without committing to a full bottle. What is inside matches the standard bottle: pure Chardonnay from the grands crus of the Côte des Blancs, a low dosage and no more than 10 per cent reserve wines. The result is a mineral, precise style. After four to five years in the cellar it shows finesse and a rounded, mineral texture.

Pour it well chilled, at around 8 to 10 °C, ideally in a tulip glass. It opens an evening as an aperitif and goes well with oysters, grilled fish or poultry. The handy size also suits a small gift or a trip.
