Lot #289. Salon Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil Brut 1996

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 99 AG.
"The 1996 Salon is just dazzling. It needs a good bit of air to fully open up, but the 1996 Salon is simply a mesmerizing Champagne that sizzles with energy, cut and total precision. A second bottle later in the week was every bit as compelling. When the 1996 Salon is on, it is just about as great as Champagne gets." Vinous, Mar 2018
Provenance: The Foxy Collection
Notes: Lightly scuffed long foil capsule, very lightly scuffed label.
