POINTS: 96 / 95 / 96 / 100 by Wine Advocate
TASTING NOTES: 2004 (96/100 WA): The 2004 Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut is another rather structured, tensile wine from a generally rather open vintage. Wafting from the glass are scents of citrus rind, crisp green apple, preserved citrus, fresh bread and smoke. Medium to full-bodied, tangy and chiseled, with fine depth at the core and a long, chalky finish, it's complemented by a pillowy pinpoint mousse. Unlike many wines from 2004, this Salon (tasted from a bottle disgorged in January 2019) still has potential to improve with further bottle age.

2006 (95/100 WA): The 2006 Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut is quite tangy and reserved by the standards of this sunny, demonstrative vintage. Offering up aromas of smoke, toasted bread, orange oil, mocha and confit lemon, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with racy acids and a concentrated, surprisingly structured mid-palate. Concluding with a long and gently empyreumatic finish, this is a fine success. This bottle was disgorged in January 2019.

2007 (96/100 WA): The 2007 Brut Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil is showing very well, unwinding in the glass with scents of citrus pith, smoke, crisp green apple, Anjou pear, white flowers and subtle hints of fresh herbs. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and incisive, it's fine-boned and precise, with a bright spine of acidity, an elegantly fleshy core of fruit and a pretty, pinpoint mousse. Like the other vintages of Salon reviewed here, this bottle was disgorged in January 2019.

2008 (100/100 WA): Disgorged in January 2019 with six grams per liter dosage, Salon's 2008 Brut Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil is a striking wine, unwinding in the glass with scents of citrus oil, fresh bread, crisp green apple, white flowers, smoke and oyster shell. Full-bodied, layered and incisive, it's deep and concentrated, with a tightly coiled core of fruit that's underpinned by a racy spine of acidity. Seamless and unerringly precise, it concludes with a long and penetratingly mineral finish. Immense though its potential for aging is, its intensity and balance make it pleasurable as well as persuasive, even today. Given the eye-watering price of this magnum-only release, I was determined to hold the wine to the highest possible standards, but it surpasses even the prodigious 1996 and surely ranks as the finest Salon since at least the 1970s. In short, this is a Blanc de Blancs that admits no argument.

About Salon

Salon Champagne is a prestigious and exclusive Champagne house located in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, known for producing some of the finest Blanc de Blancs Champagne in the world. Founded in the early 20th century by Eugène-Aimé Salon, it is renowned for its singular focus on producing Champagne from 100% Chardonnay grapes, sourced from a single vineyard in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Salon only releases vintage Champagne, meaning it is produced exclusively in years that are deemed exceptional, with only around 40 vintages released in its entire history. Each vintage is aged for at least 10 years on the lees, contributing to its complexity and refined character. The production is extremely limited, with only about 60,000 bottles made per vintage, making it one of the rarest Champagnes in the world. Salon is celebrated for its elegance, freshness, and longevity, often showcasing flavors of citrus, white flowers, brioche, and minerals, with a creamy texture and vibrant acidity.
