When Salon has some age that’s when it shows how special it is. It gains most notably in texture, aromatic complexity and really becomes singular in its expression of Mesnil Chardonnay. 2007 is in a beautiful spot, stunningly pure with incredible fruit and mineral definition and a finish that just stays with you. Special wines…

A baby, tasting this next to the 90 is mind blowing.

Limestone, steel and a soft lemon mousse. Beautiful fruit with fine acidity. Long and classy. Surprisingly forward

All the good things that Salon is known for, acid, minerals , pears, and apple but just down a level from what people might expect from Salon. Approachable for Salon at this stage of life.

Tight and complex with mineral, green apple, sweet pastry and creamy notes. No MLF keeps this bright and fresh and able to last 10+ years. Aged 10 yeas on lees.

Racy yet opulent. Mineral, citrus, and brioche. Beautiful.

Quite light lemon yellow , quite difficult to judge the perlage in this glass but apparently fine and persistent, though on the palate the bubbles are quite discreet in nature . On the nose this is quite aromatic and rich with toasted lemon sherbet , sea shell , camomile and some buttered brioche . On the palate this also shows good richness and density , with more of the lemon peel , chalky , oyster shell character , with some buttered brioche notes on the finish . This is quite intense and long on the palate , though the perlage does subside quite a lot it is integrated. Fresh chalky acidity. Very much shows like a grand cru white Burgundy with bubbles. Still quite youthful and fresh but showing well , energetic but focused . From now and over the next 10 or so years .
