Salon 1997 is one of the most accomplished vintages in Salon’s history. It is a resolutely hedonist champagne, for true champagne lovers.
Salon 1997 shimmers pale gold and iridescent through its energetic and supremely fine bubbles.
A complexity of aromas of acacia and hawthorn flowers is carried by a fine mineral structure and deepened by a succession of marvellously lyrical and bewitching aromas.
On the palate, Salon 1997 demonstrates both its extreme finesse and an insolent generosity, with its flawless attack blossoming with silky delicacy to proudly reveal an immaculately balanced champagne.
Created totally from Chardonnay grapes grown on the Grand Cru terroir of Mesnil-sur-Oger, Salon 1997 is perfect on its own, but may also be served to advantage with seafood or lobster.
