Salon produces a single vintage blanc de blancs champagne from Chardonnay grown exclusively in the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. The house declares only three to four vintages per decade, with each aged on lees for ten or more years. Approximately 40 vintages have been released since 1911. Owned by Laurent-Perrier, Salon is one of the rarest and most collectible champagnes produced.
Salon stands as perhaps the most uncompromising house in all of Champagne"a singular vision of purity that has remained unchanged since Eugene-Aime Salon founded it in 1911. Producing exclusively blanc de blancs from the legendary Le Mesnil-sur-Oger terroir, Salon releases only vintage champagne, and only in exceptional years. With merely 37 vintages declared in over a century, each release becomes an event of profound significance to collectors. The house's philosophy of extended aging"often 10+ years on lees"produces champagnes of extraordinary complexity, mineral precision, and remarkable longevity. Under Laurent-Perrier's stewardship since 1988, the estate has maintained its exacting standards while ensuring impeccable cellar management. The price of entry is substantial, with older vintages commanding five figures at auction, yet for those who understand Champagne's highest expression, Salon represents the pinnacle of the art. A treasure for the patient connoisseur.
