A Champagne of rare mineral brilliance and depth – Salon 2012 is a masterpiece of purity and complexity. Produced exclusively from Chardonnay grapes grown in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, the heart of the Côte des Blancs, this Blanc de Blancs reflects the precision and artistry of the house of Salon, part of the Laurent-Perrier group.
The 2012 vintage is among the finest of the century: expressive, harmonious, and beautifully balanced. In the glass, it shimmers with pale gold hues and green highlights. The nose reveals chalky minerality, delicate white flowers, and hints of citrus and dried rose. On the palate, it unfolds with exceptional freshness and length — layers of pineapple, lychee, and subtle smoky creaminess combine to create a Champagne of refined power and grace.
Perfect with langoustine tartare, scallops in kombu, caviar, turbot with miso, or veal fillet with white asparagus and morels. A wine that will continue to evolve magnificently in the cellar for decades.
