Flying over Champagne in a hot-air balloon, as we like to do, anchors us down to this terroir. We take it to heart to express tradition and exception through the quality and finesse of our productions. Our family passion for traveling in hot-air balloons is akin to that which makes us gather in the vineyards, around the great grape press and in the cellars where we elaborate the cuv\u00e9es of the house Salmon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>MICHEL, BORN IN THE VINES<\/strong><br \/>\nChampagne Salmon stands above all for the transmission of knowledge and know-how, born from a family of artisan winegrowers.<br \/>\nMichel, my grandfather, gave his name to the domain. Born in Chaumuzy, he always worked in the vines, and patiently gathered different plots. In 1958, he produced the first 500 bottles of champagne Salmon. He is still in charge today, and is the best to help you appreciate our champagnes during a tasting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OLIVIER OFFERS OPULENCE TO THE EXPLOITATION<\/strong><br \/>\nOlivier, my father, joined the domain in the 1980s, and has been taking great care to uphold the\u00a0 \u201cr\u00e9coltant manipulant\u201d (\u201cwinegrower\u201d) tradition for the past 30 years. Together, they have diversified the blends, by applying to our grape varieties situated in the Vall\u00e9e de l\u2019Ardre the principles of \u201cagriculture raisonn\u00e9e\u201d (sustainable agriculture), well prior to it becoming fashionable. Our goal? Do everything to ensure that our cuv\u00e9es perfectly express the qualities of this clayey-limestone terroir, enhanced by mineral notes through the presence of the millstone stone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A BOLD TRANSFORMATION<\/strong><br \/>\nOur domain of 10 hectares has 85% of its vineyard planted with Meunier. As time went by, we acquired a unique expertise to work this black grape with white flesh, which offers roundness and fruitiness to champagne. I decided to meet a new challenge: reestablish Meunier\u2019s noble reputation! Today, I\u2019m pleased to offer you the opportunity to discover 100% Meunier cuv\u00e9es of great quality, intimate, personal and revealing of our know-how.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nothing does greater justice to the history of our house \u2013 spanning three generations in Chaumuzy \u2013 than the fragile wicker nacelle with an inflated sail.
