Producer Information

Salon is one of the most prestigious houses in Champagne. Instead of making a range of styles that includes a prestige cuve like most Champagne houses, Salon makes a single prestige cuve, which is made entirely from Chardonnay from the village Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.The house was founded in 1911 by Eugne-Aim Salon, who thought that Champagne was overly dominated by heavy Pinot Noir. Consequently, Salon decided to make a top Chardonnay-based label instead.Today Salon is made in only the best vintages. The wine comes from a one-hectare (2.5 acre) parcel owned by Salon and 19 smaller parcels cultivated through agreements with various growers in the Grand Cru-classified Le Mesnil.
