解説 | パーカーポイント:95点 予想される飲み頃:NA Walnut oil and smoky suggestions of struck flint in the nose of Salon’s 1997 Brut Le Mesnil are joined by intimation of the fresh lime and grapefruit that go on to inform its silken yet vivacious and refreshing palate with metaphorically cooling and sorbet-like refreshment. There is a vivid, hauntingly long, wave-like and buoying exchange of chalk and oyster shell, kelp and iodine with luscious citrus against a backdrop of creamy richness. This superb Salon ? slightly more restrained than its 1999 counterpart, but no less intriguing or alluring ? will merit at least a decade of cellaring. (1113, The Wine Advocate 30th Nov 2013) |

解説 | パーカーポイント:95点 予想される飲み頃:2013-2023 The Salon 1999 Brut Le Mesnil ? disgorged already in 2011 and dosed with a pretty typical six grams of residual sugar ? displays faintly fusil and quarry dust notes as well as hickory nut, almond, walnut and toasted wheat piquancy on the nose. Polished and subtly creamy in texture yet brightly juicy with apple and lemon, this displays an uncanny sense of lift and refinement, perfectly complementing the honeysuckle and heliotrope perfume that waft inner-mouth. You could lose yourself in the ineffability of this wine’s floral diversity and in its resonantly nut and grain low tones. Hints of apple pip lend subtle additional piquancy on a long and at once soothing as well as stimulating finish, with suggestions of oyster liquor becoming prominent as the bottle stands open for a few minutes, and serving to milk the salivary glands for all that they are worth. Follow this for at least a decade. (1113, The Wine Advocate 30th Nov 2013) |
