Xavier Bizot can make wine anywhere he pleases, he is a Bollinger and grew up amongst the Vignobles Superieurs of Champagne. Bizot has chosen to make wine alongside Brian Croser's family, from grapes harvested off three magnificent sites, on two paradoxically varied terrains. Planted to the salubrious Terra rosa soils atop an invaluable archeological dig at Wrattonbully, rich with the undisturbed fossils of ancient Cenozoic sea animals, Crayeres Vineyard was established right across the road from Tapanappa's illustrious Whalebone. The weather here is astonishingly similar to Bordeaux and makes an awesome Cabernet Franc. Xavier Bizot and Lucy Croser are also fortunate to take their pick of properties in Adelaide Hills. To wit, Charles (Chilly) Hargrave's distinguished old vines at Summerton and a highly opportune slice of a slope on the lofty altitudes of Piccadilly Valley. It is here within the cooler climes where Xavier Bizot has found a terroir to emulate the Grand Cru of Vallee de la Marne & Montagne de Reims. Simply stellar harvests, where vigneron de Champagne met the gifted grower from Adelaide... The twin tales of terre a terre»

Delamotte is finely balanced and totally elegant. A cepage of half Chardonnay with the balance Pinot Noir and Meunier, marked by power yet devoid of aggressiveness, crafted to deliver a clean, fruity finish. Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize and Oger are villages where Chardonnay lights up the landscape. This delicate variety, grown to the great Crus of Cote des Blancs, finds the perfect combination of soils and clime to retain its freshness over time. The grapes are hand picked and sorted by growers who have supplied Maison Delamotte for generations, treated to a gentle Wilmes press, followed by vinification and malolactic. The final wine is rested on yeast lees sur lie for a minimum of three years before release.
A light gold colour, its unctuous freshness is underlined by the subtlety of a fine effervescence. Great purity on the nose, along with notes of citrus, white flowers, lemon peel and moss. A generous, clean champagne, of tenderness and smiles, a must for the cellars of those who love life.
