A beautiful Blanc de Blancs from mythic Champagne producer Salon. Rich and delicate, fleshy and rounded, here is a fascinating 1990 vintage Champagne with a deep golden colour and a fine, delicate sparkle. The nose is an aromatic explosion of lime, spices and candied oranges. With its wonderfully floral quality, here is a Salon that radiates freshness. Offered in rare magnum format.
Vinous
One of the few disappointments in this tasting, the 1990 Salon comes across as oddly evolved and disjointed today. It is hard to believe this is a representative bottle. Disgorged à la volée, with no dosage.Antonio Galloni1st June 2016

Rare and Beautiful
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.
