Salon 1985 is a mature vintage Blanc de Blancs Champagne from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Search references identify it as Salon Cuvée S Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut, and Jamie Goode's tasting note describes a fully mature bottle that still shows strong citrus-driven structure beneath its developed toasty character.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Toast, nuts, honey and apples, with faint mature cheese-like complexity in the published 2018 tasting note.
- Palate: Intense and concentrated, with a crystalline citrus core expanding into toast, apple pie and honeycomb.
- Finish: Mature but still alive, with gentle mousse, vinous depth and an acid backbone in the cited tasting note.
Best For
