The 1999 Salon 'Cuvée S' Blanc de Blancs is a magical wine that is sinfully good at twenty years of age. Disgorged in 2011 this wine opens to extraordinarily aromatics of salted praline with shades of wet stone, damp earth and bright citrus fruits that all mingle marvelously in the glass. The silky mousse captivates the senses, as bright green apple and kumquat flavors connect with diatomaceous earth, and shades of white truffle on the palate. The freshness is quite remarkable considering its age. While the 1999 is utterly delightful now, this absolutely brilliant Champagne should go on to provide drinking satisfaction for at least another fifteen years.
