Salon Magnum 2004

A beautiful Blanc de Blancs from mythic Champagne producer Salon. Clean and lively on the attack, the wine’s intense freshness and minerality deliver on its aromatic promise – an impressive nose with notes of minerals, gunflint, smoked tea, and a touch of mint. Redolent of the ocean with its iodine, seaweed tang. Taut and edgy in the mouth, the wine is all purity and fine acidity. Magnificent salinity with hints of brioche, warm bread and fresh yeast character. The wine becomes rounder as it airs in the glass, revealing a beautiful vinosity with the merest hint of bitterness on the finish.
