Since inception, Salon has been a wine defined by singularity. It is a single terroir. Côte des Blancs; a single cru. Le Mesnil; a single variety. Chardonnay and from a single year. that of a great vintage. The 1997 is complex and ethereal with hints of acacia blossom, green apple, hazelnut and warm bread. The palate is all at once exuberant yet tensile and delicate yet powerful – the epitome of balanced complexity.

The Salon 1997 Cuvée 'S' exemplifies the grandeur of the Champagne region's Chardonnay. Esteemed for its extraordinary balance and refined elegance, the 1997 vintage presents an intricate palette of flavors including crisp green apple, brioche, and subtle minerality, intricately woven together to create a Champagne experience that is profoundly memorable. The 1997 Salon Cuvée 'S' features a vibrant bouquet of green apple, lemon zest, and brioche, complemented by a creamy texture and a long, mineral-driven finish. Numerous accolades and critical acclaim, marking it as one of the finest vintages of Salon.
