1990 Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs by Salon

An emblematic expression of the grandeur of the Champagne region, the 1990 Brut Blanc de Blancs from Salon stands as a beacon of perfect harmony and precision. The 1990 vintage falls nothing short of an epic year, propelling this already esteemed Champagne into further heights of sophistication and complexity.

Classic Taste, Vividly Transformed

Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes harvested from the prized terroirs of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, this exquisite cuvée articulates a certain finesse apparent not only in its aromatics but also in its palatableness. Right from the first pour, the 1990 Brut Blanc de Blancs captures the gaze with its radiant golden hue and captivates the palate with its refined orchestration of flavours.

This 1990 Blance de Blancs behaves like an impressionistic painting on the olfactory stage. It opens up to charming brioche reminiscences, almond subtleties and honeyed nuances which are delicately intertwined with light citrusy undertones evoking waves of matured Seville oranges. The taste brings forward a brilliant complement of these bouquets, presenting an unctuous texture lined with vibrant acidity that stretches beautifully into an enduring finish.

A Vintage Virtuoso at Its Peak

The year 1990 was indeed a blessed one for Champagne, offering near-ideal conditions that danced between perfectly timed rains and blissfully sunny intervals. Exceptionally warm temperatures, analogous to those seen in 1989, contributed significantly to well-ripened grapes—implying an ideal balance between sugar content and acidity level.

This climatic benevolence has had its tangible translation into the potency, structure and sheer elegance of the 1990 Brut Blanc de Blancs.

The intersection of salon's savoir-faire and a superior harvest season took shape as this unparalleled vintage—a compelling asset for any wine investment portfolio given its gaining momentum on the market and appreciating price potential. With its gentle evolution and proven longevity, this Blanc de Blancs stands as one among many proofs of Salon’s irreplaceable position in the sphere of luxury Champagnes.

Owing to its vibrant preserved freshness and profundity, the 1990 Brut Blanc from Salon, much against usual tendencies, is still well-embodied with potential for further ageing—an intriguing characteristic for any fine wine connoisseur who appreciates the journey a wine undertakes through time.
