Salon 2015 (75cl)

Salon makes a single wine from a single vineyard in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, 100% Chardonnay, and only in years the house considers strong enough; it has been released in fewer than 40 vintages since the estate's founding in 1905. This is a bottle for a genuinely significant occasion rather than a routine celebration. Blanc de Blancs from this village usually shows precise citrus and white flower notes with a chalky, mineral backbone, along with fine, persistent bubbles.
