About Salon Salon was established in the beginning of the 1900s in Le Mesnil-sur-Ogel village in the Champagne region of France. The brand is known to cease production when crops are in poor condition, making this a rarity in the champagne market. The 2007 Vintage features fresh citrus with sprightly mineral nuances, such as white pepper and lime.

JAL will serve Chateau Lagrange, a wine that was once on the decline, but made a remarkable comeback under the sponsorship of Suntory, a Japanese company, and the cooperation of the University of Bordeaux. Kenishi Ohashi and Motohito Okoshi, JAL’s wine advisors, carefully selected the wine based on its quality and taste.
