Why it’s different

Dedicated to his brother, the Maison's first oenologist, this Blanc de Blancs cuvée illustrates the precision and elegance of Chardonnay from the best Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs: Cramant for minerality, Chouilly and Oiry for finesse, Mesnil-sur-Oger for structure and longevity. On the nose, floral notes combine with pear and hazelnut, while on the palate, brioche, mirabelle plum and mandarin are found in a crystalline and mineral finish. Pure and linear in intensity, Louis Salmon 2013 expresses all the potential and balance of a great Blanc de Blancs, ideal with Corrèze veal kidneys in a cocotte or Brittany abalone with salicornia.

How do I drink it?

A unique vintage, 2013 was marked by a cold winter and a summer with late flowering. This slow ripening produced grapes of great freshness, rich in aromas and well-balanced. A rare vintage, which reveals itself to be bright and brilliant, with lively freshness, delicate fruit and crisp acidity.
