Champagne Salon, Le Mesnil, Blanc de Blancs 2004 1x75cl

90? Points, Neal Martin, 2023-2030 Vinous We started with a 2004 Salon. I have to admit that this bottle does not bowl me over. Steely and aloof, I find the aromatics “distant”. The palate is taut and malic, with just a hint of orange zest coming through with a sapid finish. Fine length, but I could not engage with this champagne, leaving me a bit cold. Too young? Quite possibly, though, I have enjoyed other vintages of Salon more than this.Review Date: 01 Mar 23
