    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Champagne Delamotte is an art that blends tradition and innovation. The hand-harvested grapes are gently pressed to extract the juice without compromising its purity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, preserving the fruity and floral aromas. Aging on the lees for several months gives the wine complexity and a creamy texture. Finally, the dosage is carefully determined, respecting the wine's character and offering a balanced and fresh finish.
