Tasting Note:
Undoubtedly the King of Champagne Krug consistently produces the finest wines that Champagne have to offer. Rich and complex with a characteristic toasty quality on the nose, this champagne has the most delicate and fine bubbles imaginable. On the palate the complexity continues with a nuttiness combining with a fresh lemony acidity. An outstanding wine suitable for any occasion.
'Funky' Tasting Note:
Rich and complex with a characteristic toasty quality on the nose and a nuttiness combining with a fresh lemony acidity on the palate.
Vinification Note:
The taste of Krug is greatly enhanced by an exceptionally long period of maturation (6 to 8 years) in the Krug cellars before release. This requires, of course, maintaining a stock covering at least six years of sales, a practice unparalleled in Champagne.
