Salon Le Mesnil 1996: Pristine Original Wood Cases at Best Price Worldwide

 

 

 

We just acquired 12 pristine Original Wood 6Pk Cases of the Legendary and 100 Pointer Salon Le Mesnil 1996 from a long term customer who stored these wines meticulously.

 

 

 The provenance is exceptional on these and they just arrived in our warehouse!

 

Our price on these cases is the Best In The World. Next best case price in the USA is $10,134 which is nearly $2K more than us! At $1,458 per bottle, we are even the lowest price in US when you break these into individual bottles. So no premium for the Original Wood Case.

  

Dider Despond the CEO of Champagne Salon says the 1996 is “as bright as the sun light on the highest snow caps.” With fine active bubbles, it has both the electricity and impertinence of youth, yet shows the complexity and layers of aromas. On the palate, displays a remarkable subtlety of flavors with touches of green apples, fresh citrus – lemon and grapefruit – building into mellow hints of ripe pear and kiwi.

   

Salon Champagne is one of the worlds best! Excellence, heritage, finesse and strict quality standards have driven this Champagne to collector status across the world. Salon is a monument to how riveting, laser-sharp and mineral driven Chardonnay can be! Salon has always been insiders Champagne and these are Ready To Drink Now!

  

“The 1996 Salon is just dazzling...simply a mesmerizing Champagne that sizzles with energy, cut and total precision...” – Antonio Galloni 

 

"On the palate, a sensation of flesh and opulence, but also the telltale precision and erect backbone of racy acidity, and an enthralling finish ending on a refreshing note of salinity. A truly great Salon that leaves one speechless.” 

Let us know if you would like to secure your Salon Le Mesnil Champagne for that next special occasion. We also have more vintages available like 2002 and also 3Pk’s of 1996 on our website.

  

Salon is by far the hottest champagne brand that we have. These don’t come around very often and when they do they disappear fast.

 

 

A warm, even hot, spring with no real change during the summer, conditions that allowed the grapes to gorge themselves on sugar while preserving good acidity. Harvest began on 23 September. Hazelnut, spices, flowers form part of the remarkable aromatic complexity of this Champagne that also has also remarkable depth of character. Perhaps the most impressive Salon of the tasting. On the palate, a sensation of flesh and opulence, but also the telltale precision and erect backbone of racy acidity, and an enthralling finish ending on a refreshing note of salinity. A truly great Salon that leaves one speechless. -100 Pts Decanter
