The Champagne Salon Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs 2012 is a stunning vintage that proves the brilliance of Chardonnay from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, despite the challenges posed by the weather. Initially dismissed by Salon’s president Didier Depond as a year unfit for release, the 2012 vintage surprised even the most discerning critics. Known for its rich, expressive fruit and unmistakable chalky structure, this vintage is already being hailed as one of the finest Salon champagnes of the millennium, alongside the legendary 2008.
The 2012 vintage faced challenges early on, with frosts and hail damaging the vines during bud burst. However, a warm August and September helped rescue the vintage, bringing the grapes to perfect ripeness. This Champagne is a true expression of Salon’s philosophy—pure Chardonnay, made in the reductive style without oak, to preserve its freshness and elegance. The 2012 Salon is rich, generous, and has the potential to evolve beautifully. With eight years of ageing on the lees, it’s a Champagne with a powerful structure and elegant, complex character that will continue to develop for decades.

This legendary Champagne, only produced in exceptional years, comes from the village of Le Mesnil in the Côte des Blancs. It is made from 100% Chardonnay and aged for many years before release. Its minerality, concentration and beautiful fruit are still astonishingly young and deserve further aging. Drink from 2020
Such an impressive wine for the detail in every respect. The nose delivers fresh lemon and grapefruit peel, together with white, stony minerals and very, very fresh and light pastry notes. Some grilled hazelnuts, too. The palate is super fine, supple and crisp with attractive, dry, salty minerals on the finish that holds super long, fine and focused. Elegant citrus and light brioche to close. Drink or hold.
There are pure chalk and lemon juice notes intertwined with perfectly ripe, sunny white and yellow-fleshed fruit expressions (even hints of pineapples) on the bright, fresh, subtle but most of all highly elegant and nobly expressive nose. Altogether, that makes the 2007 Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut an outstanding Salon that already shows its class without any reservation but also without any compromises to its refined and terroir-driven style. Compared to the powerful and structured 2006 that, from my memories, showed wet chalk flavors but almost no fruit in its youth, the weightless and delicate 2007 is a coolish, elegant and smoky gentleman dressed in a white tie and silk hat—Max Raabe singing Berlin chansons from the 1920s! The performance on the palate is pure yet concentrated, fresh and linear, very elegant and perfectly balanced, but most of all, it is extremely fine and stimulating! There is a chalky-dusty texture in the aftertaste that makes this a great Salon with sublime finesse and elegance. Lovely lemon flavors are displayed on the pure, fresh and concentrated finish. The radiant 2007 Salon is one of the greatest Champagnes I have had from this vintage.
Founded in 1905 by Aimé Salon, Domaine Salon is one of the most prestigious and iconic champagne houses in the world. Located in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, in the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Salon produces one of the finest and most sought-after expressions of Blanc de Blancs Champagne. The house's approach is unique—Salon produces only one wine, a 100% Chardonnay Champagne, made exclusively from grapes sourced from its meticulously cared-for, one-hectare vineyard in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
Salon’s singular focus on quality and precision has made it an exceptional house in the Champagne world. Under the leadership of Didier Depond, President of Champagne Salon, the house continues to produce only the most exceptional vintages, crafting a Champagne that is the epitome of purity, elegance, and finesse. Each bottle of Salon reflects the best of the Le Mesnil terroir, with grapes harvested only in the finest years and aged for a minimum of ten years in the cellar. Salon is the perfect balance of tradition and innovation, creating a Champagne that is as timeless as it is extraordinary.
The philosophy of Domaine Salon is built upon a singular vision: to produce a Champagne that reflects the purest expression of Chardonnay from the renowned terroir of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. This vision is realised through meticulous vineyard management, hand-selecting only the best grapes from the estate’s one-hectare vineyard, and crafting the wine with minimal intervention. Salon's commitment to creating a Champagne that showcases the essence of the terroir is unmatched, and every vintage is produced with the highest standards of quality and precision.
Salon’s philosophy embraces purity in all aspects of its winemaking. The house produces a single vintage of Blanc de Blancs Champagne only in exceptional years, with each bottle being aged for a minimum of ten years in the cool, damp cellars of the Maison. This extended lees ageing allows the Champagne to develop a richness and complexity that is unmatched, while retaining its signature brightness and freshness. The result is a Champagne that is both delicate and powerful, with a structure that allows it to age gracefully and evolve over time. Salon is a true reflection of the history, craftsmanship, and elegance that define the world of fine Champagne.
A vibrant and complex nose, with bright citrus notes of lemon zest and orange blossom, complemented by delicate floral aromas and hints of chalky minerality.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and crisp, with a rich texture that is balanced by the signature minerality of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. The fruit is expressive, with layers of citrus and subtle dried fruit notes, creating a complex and harmonious mouthfeel.
The finish is long and persistent, with a delicate minerality that lingers, leaving a refreshing and elegant aftertaste. The wine’s structure ensures it will age beautifully, revealing further complexity over time.

The Salon 2012 has scintillating aromatic brilliance and purity with seductive scents of white fruit, citrus zest and spring flowers capped by a touch of spice. With some air, pastry-like notes add to its complex yet elegant fragrance, which remains essentially citrussy in character. On the palate, it reverberates with kinetic energy coursing through its crystalline and elongated structure, making this vintage Champagne seem a bit atypical for Salon. Indeed, this edition is supremely elegant and subtle to a degree that surpasses those of other recent vintages. Salon 2012 is a racy thoroughbred that will go the distance without effort, a telltale sign being its chalk-infused yet airborne finish. In time, it will in all likelihood merit the ultimate accolade of a 100-point score.
