Salon Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs (Cuvée S) Brut Champagne 2013

Salon Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut 2013 is one of Champagne’s rarest expressions: a single-vineyard, single-grape cuvée made only in exceptional years. Crafted exclusively from 100% Chardonnay grown in the Grand Cru vineyards of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, it captures the pure, chiselled style that has made Salon one of the most coveted names in Blanc de Blancs Champagne.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse, this 2013 shows remarkable precision and lift. The nose opens with citrus zest, white flowers, fresh brioche, and a distinct chalky, mineral edge. On the palate, it is bright and structured, combining tension and finesse with layers of lemon, green apple, subtle pastry richness, and a long saline finish. The balance of vibrant acidity and deep complexity gives the wine excellent ageing potential. While already compelling now for lovers of taut, energetic Champagne, Salon’s style is built for the cellar and will continue to evolve gracefully over many years, gaining further breadth, depth, and toasted nuance.

Production
Made from Chardonnay sourced entirely from Grand Cru parcels in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, the wine reflects one of the most prized terroirs in the Côte des Blancs, where chalky soils lend drive, minerality, and elegance. Salon is famously uncompromising in its approach, producing only in outstanding vintages and vinifying just one cuvée, with meticulous selection and a production philosophy focused on purity and precision.

Food & Serving
Best served well chilled at around 8–10°C, Salon 2013 is a natural partner for oysters, caviar, sashimi, scallops, lobster, and other refined seafood dishes. It also pairs beautifully with delicate poultry or truffle-based dishes. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a little time in the glass can help reveal the wine’s layered aromatics.

Producer
Champagne Salon was founded in the early 20th century and quickly became a benchmark for ultra-fine Blanc de Blancs Champagne. Based in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, it is renowned for its singular focus on one prestige cuvée and its extremely limited releases. Over the decades, Salon has earned an almost cult-like reputation among collectors and Champagne lovers for quality, consistency, and rarity.
