Champagne at its rarest and most refined, Salon is truly special. Exclusive to Corney & Barrow.
Champagne Salon is out of the ordinary. Based in the prestigious Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil in Champagne's Cote des Blancs, Salon is made from a single Chardonnay vineyard, in tiny quantities, and only in exceptional vintages (maybe 3 times a decade). Incredibly fine, the 1999 is both expressive and approachable.

Press Reviews
"Champagne at its rarest and most refined, exclusive to Corney & Barrow. Drink now or lay down until 2020."
This refers to the 1997 vintage:
"Salon is undoubtedly one of the world's greatest wines. Made from 40-year-old vines, it is a study in perfection. A first sip reveals the extraordinary power and depth of this Champagne, sourced from Salon's grand cru vineyard in the heart of the Cotes du Blanc. The 1997 has notes of brioche and green apple, with an incredible length of flavor. Simply stunning."
