Krug Champagne Grande Cuvee 169eme Edition NV 750ml

Krug Champagne Grande Cuvee 169eme Edition NV 750ml

Description: A sweet iodic and tense nose draws you in. Then out tumbles a deep current of tindery burnished fruit on the palate, ringing the gums. A little bitter and salty; very greengage. Pulsing and linear; youthfully austere even if the corners are cleverly silky. Stately depth and plenty of weight. Deceptively tight, this has all the structure and energy of fine wine; all its glory will reveal slowly over the next few years. 2013 increasingly reveals itself to me as a very good Champagne year and the influence is clear in this wine. Main harvest: 2013. 40% reserves. Aged for almost seven years on lees. Disgorged: Early 2021.
