For this special evening, guests will have the rare opportunity to taste a selection of Delamotte’s most distinguished cuvées, expertly paired with a gourmet five-course menu. The carefully curated list of Champagnes includes NV Delamotte Brut, NV Delamotte Blanc de Blancs, NV Delamotte Rosé, and 2018 Delamotte Blanc de Blancs. Grégoire Blanc personally selected these exquisite Champagnes to complement each dish, thus enhancing the overall dining experience and highlighting the delicate nuances of the wines.
