JAL to Serve Champagne Salon 2002 in First Class

JAL will serve Champagne Salon 2002 in First Class on its international routes from 16 December 2013, months in advance of the champagne's global distribution date planned for April 2014.

JAL has provided Champagne Salon in its First Class since December 2007 and is the only airline in the world to serve this legendary champagne on its flights.

Champagne Salon is a product of the House of Salon established at the beginning of 20th century. The champagne is only produced in years when the harvest is considered by the House of Salon to be of high enough quality, and is only released for consumption once it has reached full maturity, usually on average 10 years after the grapes were first harvested.

In over a century of production only 37 vintages have been released for general consumption.

Passengers travelling in JAL's First Class are indulged with the high champagne "Salon 2002" and a delectable inflight meal from "Restaurant in the Sky".

In our September 2012 HD video interview with Ms. Jeannie Cho Lee about wine and champagne, Ms. Cho Lee names Champagne Salon as one of her top three favoutite champagnes of all time. Watch the HD Video Interview with Ms. Jeannie Cho Lee here.
