Product Description: A singular Champagne from a singular vision, born only in exceptional years. Salon Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs 2015 is the 45th release from one of Champagne’s rarest houses—a cuvée defined by its uncompromising focus. From a single vintage, single grape (Chardonnay), and single village (Le Mesnil-sur-Oger), Salon is only made in the years that meet its exacting standards. The 2015 vintage joins an elite lineage that began with the original 1905 release, once bottled solely for the founder’s personal cellar. This bottling captures the radiant energy of a warm, dry year, tempered by September rains that helped perfect the fruit’s balance. Aged for a decade on lees in the cellar before release, it emerges with signature finesse, precision, and age-worthy tension. It’s Champagne for those who value restraint over opulence, purity over gloss—nothing added, nothing in excess. Pair with fine shellfish, buttery pastry, or nothing at all—Salon needs little to shine. Drink now with reverence, or cellar for decades to watch its story unfold. Tasting Notes NOSE – Refined and lifted Lemon peel, chalk dust, white flowers, and toasted brioche. PALATE – Linear and pure Taut citrus, green apple, and saline minerality with a silken mousse.

Château Mouton Rothschild is the work of one man, the legendary Baron Philippe, who is solely responsible for this giant of Bordeaux. Taking charge in 1923 until his death in 1988, he created something the world will always be in debt for. He also started the tradition of getting an artist to design a label for every vintage, a tradition that continues to this day. In 2009, the wine almost transcends perfection. A quite low alcohol percentage given the ripeness of the fruit, the bouquet is reminiscent of cigar box and graphite with violets and cassis playing a part. The palate is both restrained and concentrated, a impressive result indeed. The structure of the wine is hidden somewhat by the exuberant fruit, yet it is that structure that will see this extraordinary wine cellar for the good part of half a century!

Another terrific success for the flagship estate (a 92-acre vineyard situated on the famed limestone and clay-rich slopes of Cote Pavie) of Chantal and Gerard Perse, the 2011 Pavie is composed of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. 2011 may be the biggest, richest, most massive wine of the vintage. With thrilling levels of concentration, tremendous purity, high but sweet tannin, a skyscraper-like mouthfeel, and terrific intensity, depth and palate presence, this larger-than-life effort will require 5-8 years of cellaring, and should age effortlessly over the following 25-30 years.
