Join us for an evening exploring the wines of Champagne Delamotte—one of Champagne’s most quietly respected, precision-driven houses and the longtime sister estate to the legendary Champagne Salon.
I [Jess] will never forget the look Chris gave me the first time I asked who Salon was. The pause. The scoff. The very serious “You should know this.” And then—his eyes lighting up as he started talking about a producer that genuinely changed how a region is understood. Founded in 1911 by Aimé Salon, Salon was built on a radical idea for its time: that Chardonnay alone—specifically from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger—could create one of the world’s great, age-worthy Champagnes.
While Salon represents a rare, single-minded vision, Delamotte brings the broader story of great Mesnil Chardonnay to life across multiple vineyards and cuvées—offering a beautifully accessible window into the same extraordinary place.
We’ll taste through Delamotte’s wines with Cristian Rimoldi, Export Director for both houses, while unpacking what truly sets Le Mesnil apart, why Chardonnay from this corner of the Côte des Blancs has such a powerful reputation, and how Delamotte and Salon together represent two expressions of the same origin—one rare and iconic, the other quietly indispensable.
A can’t-miss night for bubble lovers, collectors, and anyone curious about why some of Champagne’s most important wines come from one chalk-rich village and a laser-focused vision of Chardonnay.
$55 per seat | includes a tasting flight of Delamotte wines and curated bites from Chef Rosanne
