Rich, lush aromas of dried fruit and citrus marmalade, this is Champagne at its most opulent. Honeyed and round on the palate, with fine acidity keeping it focused. Gorgeous now, yet will age well.--Krug vertical. Drink now through 2015. –BS
Producer
Krug
Unarguably the most prestigious of all the great Champagne houses, Krug produces the most sought after wines in the world. While the multi-national high-quality goods conglomerate, LVMH bought Krug in 1999, several family members have remained on the board. Six generations later, the house continues in the legacy of founder Joseph Krug with Olivier Krug, representing the family name since 2009. In order to preserve their passion and unique savoir-faire style, the house has chosen to limit their production to guarantee the unparalleled quality of their wines. These are truly exceptional Champagnes, made from hand-selected plots, artfully blended by Krug’s Chef de Caves, Eric Lebel and the Tasting Committee, their wines are then developed at a slow pace creating impressive and structured blends. They were the first to use the term “multi-vintage” rather than “non-vintage” to describe their Grand Cuvée. This exclusive blend is made from at least ten different vintages and aged for more than six years on the lees before being blended to produce the house style. The House of Krug also produces a rare small single-vineyard wine, Clos de Mesnil, as well as a very fine Rosé.
