Descrizione

The Champagne Salon Cuvée 'S' Le Mesnil from Salon is a true gem in the elite champagne landscape. Produced exclusively in the best vintage years from 100% Chardonnay grapes, this champagne comes from the Grand Cru of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, one of the most prestigious terroirs in the entire Côte des Blancs.

The extreme care in the selection of the grapes and the long maturation on the lees, which can exceed 10 years, gives this wine an unparalleled complexity and depth of flavor. On the nose, the Salon Cuvée 'S' Le Mesnil offers a sophisticated bouquet with notes of ripe citrus, white-fleshed fruits, almond, and subtle hints of brioche. On the palate, it surprises with its lively acidity and minerality, a perfect balance that concludes with a long and memorable finish.

Suitable for celebrating very special occasions, this champagne pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as oysters, white truffle, or simply as a meditative end-of-meal drink. Always serve well-chilled to enhance all its nuances.

Winery history

Conceived by Eugène‑Aimé Salon at the beginning of the 20th century, the wine began as a private production and was made available to the public from the 1920s. Throughout the century the Maison maintained a highly selective release policy: only vintages judged among the best are bottled as Salon, thereby creating a long series of rare and sought-after vintages. At the end of the 20th century the estate was acquired, and the brand is now managed within the group that brings together Salon and its sister house Delamotte.

Production philosophy

The pursuit of essence and purity: bringing out the character of a single vineyard, a single cru and a single grape variety. Production prioritizes rigorous vintage selection and winemaking unchanged over time to enhance finesse, minerality and aging potential.

Terroir and vineyards

The wine comes exclusively from the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil‑sur‑Oger in the Côte des Blancs. The cuvée is assembled from the estate parcel called “Jardin Salon” and from other selected parcels within the same village, all chosen to express the characteristic minerality of the Mesnilois terroirs.
