Why We're Buying
Brut Blanc De Blanc Millésime was created to honor Elisabeth Salmon's brother, who brought the Champagne house to prominence. The Champagne spends ten years on lees and only uses grapes from elite grand cru terroirs for a genuine and investment-worthy final product.
Critics Scores
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Disgorged in October 2020 with seven grams per liter dosage, the 2008 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Louis Salmon is showing beautifully, unfurling in the glass with scents of crisp yellow apple and stone fruits mingled with dried white flowers, freshly baked bread, buttery pasty and mandarin oil. Full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's a textural, racy, penetrating wine endowed with considerable cut and concentration. It's derived from the villages of Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger and Chouilly, with the latter accounting for some 40% of the blend.
