Punteggi dei critici
96 Robert Parker
The superb 2007 Brut Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil wafts from the glass with a beautiful bouquet of crushed chalk, lemon oil, crisp green apple, white flowers and brioche. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, taut and incisive, with bright acids, a tight-knit core and a brisk mousse, concluding with a long, chalky and bone-dry finish. After the comparatively broad and fleshy 2002, 2004 and 2006 vintages, the 2007 Salon seems to mark a return to a racier, more precise style—though admittedly that's in keeping with the style of the vintage—that makes me anticipate the release of the 2008 all the more eagerly. <br/>

93 Wine Spectator
Lightly toasty and fresh, featuring rich notes of peach tart and pastry cream, accented by hints of pink grapefruit pith, chalk and Marcona almond. Delicate and finely knit, with citrusy acidity driving the racy finish. Drink now through 2024. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 800 cases imported. — AN

Maison Salon
La storia di Salon è unica in Champagne. Insoddisfatto degli Champagne esistenti, nel 1911 Eugene-Aimé Salon cominciò a produrre il proprio Champagne dall’eccezionale zona Mesnil. Lavorò alacremente per creare lo Champagne dei suoi sogni: un Blanc de Blancs mai visto prima. Basta una parola per qualificare questo Champagne: unico! Proviene da una singola regione – Côte des Blancs, da un unico cru – Mesnil-sur-Oger, da una sola varietà d’uva - Chardonnay, e da un solo millesimo. Il Chardonnay Mesnil-sur-Oger si caratterizza per la grande raffinatezza, freschezza, complessità e costanza nelle sue caratteristiche, anche dopo lunghi anni passati nella cantina.
