Champagne Salon was founded by Eugène-Aimé Salon, a Paris fur merchant who returned to his Champagne roots and made his first Blanc de Blancs in 1905, then established the house in 1911. He chose the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger as the best source for long-lived Chardonnay. Salon now shares ownership with sister house Delamotte under the Laurent-Perrier group. The house makes only about three vintages per decade, and the 2015 is just its 45th release.

Salon is a single-cru, single-varietal, single-vintage wine. It is 100 percent Chardonnay from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, drawn from the one-hectare Jardin de Salon and 19 other small parcels. The 2015 growing season was dry, sunny, and unusually warm and early. Harvest began on September 8. The wine aged on its lees for about ten years before release. It was disgorged in spring 2025 with a Brut dosage of six grams per liter.

The 2015 shows a golden color with green highlights and a fine, persistent mousse. Aromas of crushed chalk, flint, and rich pastry cream lead into a palate of taut acidity, citrus, and savory depth. It’s drinking well now and has the structure to cellar for decades. Pair with oysters, lobster, or roast poultry.

"The 2015 Salon is exquisite. Bright and focused, the 2015 captures a gorgeous stylsitic middle ground between the riper and cooler years. The flavor profile leans towards the more citrus, floral and mineraldriven end of the spectrum typical of cooler years, and yet the wine is also wonderfully open-knit and accessible, with no hard edges and the
textural balance that is more common in warmer years. It's a duality that works extremely well. There is a savory undertone typical of the year, but it is a strand in the fabric rather than a dominant characteristic. I left a bottle open for more than a week, during which I
observed virtually no oxidation. The 2015 might not be as overtly impressive as some recent years, rather it is a Champagne of cool sophistication and total polish. Unusually, the 2015 is being released
ahead of the 2014.
