Salon 1988

HED6329 75cl 12%
Founder Eugène-Aimé Salon pioneered Champagne’s first ever blanc de blancs in the early 1900s. Salon was originally destined to personal consumption until 1921, the first commercial vintage. This release is the 1988 vintage which was imported to the US by Wilson Daniels Ltd. Now in its optimal drinking window, the cuvée is beautifully focused, with deep notes of lime, honey and mushrooms in butter.

Salon

One of the world's most famous prestige cuvée, the first vintage of Champagne Salon was 1905, although it wouldn't be until the 1920s that these wines were finally released to the public. An unparalleled Blanc de Blancs, Salon comes from a single hectare plot and nineteen other smaller plots in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, and the wine is only prouced in the very finest vintages. As a result, the 20th century saw only 37 bottlings of this fabled Champagne.

 Every bottle of Salon is held at the estate cellars for 10 years before release. The result is a highly complex, layered Blanc de Blancs Champagne which has the capacity to age for decades.
