  • The History Today
    TheDelamotte History is a Champagne house more than 250 years old (it is the sixth oldest Champagne house) founded in Reims in 1760 by François Delamotte, a vineyard owner. He and other Champagne producers were the creators of a tradition based on quality. Their modus operandi, far from being viewed as quaint, earned them a place in the Encyclopedia of Physiocrates. Their practices have been used as a model and a paradigm by other businesses due to their progressive outlook and insistence on quality. They were truly modern-minded people. Their masterpiece – the wines – continue to be recreated anew each year and the house of Delamotte is a prime example of the traditions of quality they embody. Alexandre Delamotte brought the cellars, caves and offices of the House of Delamotte to one beautiful mansion at the end of the 18th century. In 1828, his brother, Nicolas Louis Delamotte, also known as the Chevalier Delamotte Barrachin, a former Chevalier de Malte and President of the Chamber of Commerce of Reims, assumed management of the House of Delamotte. In this tenure with the Chamber of Commerce, Nicolas was well known for hosting spectacular events, namely the coronation of France’s last King, Charles X. Serge Chapuis The House was sold to the Lanson family in the 1830’s, who later started producing a Lanson label. It was eventually acquired by Marie-Louise de Nonancourt, née Lanson, in the period between the two World Wars. In 1927, Marie-Louise made the decision to transfer the activities of the house of Delamottte to Mesnil-sur-Oger.

  • SWE PIEDMONT Vs TUSCANY BACKGROUNDER
    SWE PIEDMONT vs TUSCANY BACKGROUNDER ITALY Italy is a spirited, thriving, ancient enigma that unveils, yet hides, many faces. Invading Phoenicians, Greeks, Cathaginians, as well as native Etruscans and Romans left their imprints as did the Saracens, Visigoths, Normans, Austrian and Germans who succeeded them. As one of the world's top industrial nations, Italy offers a unique marriage of past and present, tradition blended with modern technology -- as exemplified by the Banfi winery and vineyard estate in Montalcino. Italy is 760 miles long and approximately 100 miles wide (150 at its widest point), an area of 116,303 square miles -- the combined area of Georgia and Florida. It is subdivided into 20 regions, and inhabited by more than 60 million people. Italy's climate is temperate, as it is surrounded on three sides by the sea, and protected from icy northern winds by the majestic sweep of alpine ranges. Winters are fairly mild, and summers are pleasant and enjoyable. NORTHWESTERN ITALY The northwest sector of Italy includes the greater part of the arc of the Alps and Apennines, from which the land slopes toward the Po River. The area is divided into five regions: Valle d'Aosta, Piedmont, Liguria, Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna. Like the topography, soil and climate, the types of wine produced in these areas vary considerably from one region to another. This part of Italy is extremely prosperous, since it includes the so-called industrial triangle, made up of the cities of Milan, Turin and Genoa, as well as the rich agricultural lands of the Po River and its tributaries.

  • 2007 Aleatico Passito Masseria Li Veli, Puglia, Italy
    2007 Aleatico Passito Masseria Li Veli, Puglia, Italy Product details Vintage: 2007 Drinking: 2017 Producer: Masseria Li Veli Alcohol: Region: Puglia Variety: Country: Italy Tasting notes An exceptionally complex and delicious sweet wine with an intense, dark bouquet of dried figs, sweet oranges and dates. On the palate Mediterranean herbs and sweet spices balance the rich, silky textures and dried apricot and dark prune flavours. This wine would be a perfect pairing with dry sweets such as almond based cakes or biscuits but also at the end of the meal with a good cigar! About the producer MASSERAI LI VELI WINE Puglia has always felt somewhat separate to the rest of Italy, particularly the southern half, the heel: Salento. This limestone peninsula has its own, independent character. Closer to Croatia, Montenegro, Albania and Greece than to Barolo or even Chianti, it’s an area with ancient influences from overseas, strange dialects such as Greki, from its time as an Ancient Greek colony, and unique architecture in the conical shape of trulli stone houses. It is also a region with its own distinct viticulture - the Primitivo grape is its most famous export (named Zinfandel in other parts of the world), but there are many other indigenous Puglian grape varieties too. Puglia has traditionally been a region of outliers, those going against the grain. The Masseria Li Veli winery was built by one such, and is now operated by a family with a similar philosophy. The Marquis Antonio de Viti de Marco, an internationally recognised professor of economics in Rome since the 1880s, refused to take an oath of loyalty to Mussolini’s Fascist party in 1931 and left the capital to follow his passion for winemaking instead.

  • Why Buy Grower Champagne? Excerpts from a Seminar by Kevin Pike & Terry Theise “Champagne Is on the Verge of Profound Change
    Why Buy Grower Champagne? Excerpts from a seminar by Kevin Pike & Terry Theise “Champagne is on the verge of profound change. There is a growing realization in the region that its viticulture has become slovenly and the subtleties of its terroir have been neglected. The era of great growers and great vineyards is just beginning.” —The New France, Andrew Jefford, 2002 The Champagne region in France is dominated by a handful of brand names. These négoçiants and coopératives produce 80% of the total output in Champagne, yet they only own 12% of the vineyards. They may, by law, purchase as much of their grapes or pressed juice or already made sparking wine (known as sur-lattes) as they wish from all over the region. They bring to market a mass produced commodity - the most successful processed agricultural product in human history - a Champagne made in a “house style.” This is a sparkling wine made in a highly interventionist and formulaic way with swift pressing, extensive use of chaptalization, acidifi cation, cultured yeast strains, enzymes, nitrogenous yeast nutrients and rapid temperature controlled fermentations. They produce many millions of cases annually. By contrast, Small Growers, or “récoltant-manipulants,” may purchase only 5% of their fruit and handcraft their limited quantities of Champagne from individual villages and parcels where the inherent qualities of the vineyards imprint themselves into the wines. These winemakers are brave souls in an industrialized age: growing, crafting and bottling their own Champagne, offering it to the world as their life’s work. They deserve your support. Problem: There’s only one “Champagne” While Champagne consists of one AOC it is one of the largest in France, totaling 34,000 hectares (84,000 acres).
