A Rare Vintage Expression of Prestige and Purity
Crafted solely from Chardonnay grown in the Grand Cru vineyards of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, the 1997 Salon Cuvée ‘S’ is an exceptional Blanc de Blancs Champagne produced only in rare vintages. Known for its elegance, longevity, and precision, this vintage embodies the essence of Salon’s philosophy: singularity and patience.
Vintage & Terroir
1997 offered a warm, generous growing season, resulting in fruit of concentration and finesse. After over two decades of maturation, this wine now offers a remarkable balance between vibrant minerality and rich complexity—hallmarks of Le Mesnil’s chalky soils.
