Showing the more ripe, concentrated style of the vintage in its orchard\/citrus fruits and chalky minerality, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, brilliant purity, elegant, bright acidity, and a big finish. It’s a big, layered, structured Salon that needs to be forgotten for 4-5 years, but it’s going to drink beautifully for two decades. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAG97 \"The 2006 Salon is a very rich wine, almost uncharacteristically so. Deep and exotic the 2006 exudes richness in all of its dimensions, with myriad inflections of sumptuous fruit that fill out its ample, large-scaled frame. Today, the 2006 is surprisingly accessible for a young Salon, but it needs time to shed some baby fat. At times, the 2006 recalls the 2002, but it appears to have more phenolic intensity and overall structure. Even with all of its flamboyance and pure volume, the 2006 retains quite a bit of energy and freshness. I imagine it will be a fascinating, utterly compelling Champagne to follow over the next several decades.\" AG Jul 2017\u003cbr\u003eSalon, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger Grand Cru","brand":"Salon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50718227366125,"sku":"CHM:SAL:SALO-1500-2006-F0L0C0","price":2995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/2006-salon-le-mesnil-sur-oger-grand-cru-magnum-1-5l-owc","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
