There are many great Champagne producers, but one that stands out for consistently producing near-perfect bottles of Champagne is the legendary Salon.  Salon produces exceptional vintage Champagnes of a single terroir – the Cotes des Blancs; a single cru – Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, a single varietal – Chardonnay; from one year.  Salon Champagnes comes from a single-hectare plot called “The Salon Garden” and 19 other small plots in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger selected by the founder, Eugene-Aime Salon, over a century ago.

Salon Le Mesnil is aged in its own cellar for an average of ten years, allowing each bottle ample time to develop its unique complexity and finesse.  Only years with perfect growing seasons and fruit produce vintages, with only 37 vintages achieving this standard in the past 100 years.  Salon Champagnes are highly sought after by collectors, and Benchmark currently has several vintages available. 

Add the legendary Salon to your collection, and enjoy one of the great wine-drinking experiences.
