Delamotte
The company was founded in Reims in 1760 by François Delamotte. Marie-Louise de Nonancourt revived the brand in 1927, establishing it in the village of Mesnil-sur-Oger, a temple of the Côte des Blancs. Owned by the Laurent-Perrier group, the house has been managed since 1997 by Didier Depond, also head of the Salon house. Michel Fauconnet, Laurent-Perrier's cellar master, is in charge of vinification. The specialty remains Chardonnay from parcels all classified as 100% Grand Cru, around Mesnil-sur-Oger, on the Côte des Blancs, which produces wines renowned for their finesse and freshness. Delamotte is a sought-after brand among gourmets.
