11/5/2012Marvellous complexity and balance. This is the definition of Krug: it combines features of the other Krug Champagnes with none of the extremes possible with other cuvees. Great acidity and a dry but soft finish that goes on and on; all things in superb balance. There's the biscuity barrel effect and the aldehydes, but they are in subtle helpings here. Truly a prestige Champagne, not merely a non-vintage.

12/9/2012Medium to full yellow colour, bright and fresh. Very toasty, bready complexity, nice developed bouquet, lots of biscuity and balsamic barrel ferment and pinoid development. Lots of barrel developed complexities. Very mellow, mature and complex. Good length and satisfying aftertaste. Excellent softness and the middle-palate is very rewarding.

8/6/2016(2007 base year; 183 components, the oldest being 1990) Dry toasty, nutty, savoury bouquet showing more primary fruit and less age character than its companions in the Krug portfolio. A trace of mushroom. Wonderfully balanced acidity, great flavour and persistence. Tasted after the vintage wines it seems youthful and less-complex, but it's an unfair comparison. This is a terrific wine with great depth and underlying complexity.

8/6/2016(158ème Edition. 2002 base year) This has long been sold out, but was served as an example of a Grande Cuvée based on a great year. It's probably five years since this was the current blend. It now shows wonderful maturity, superb complexity of bouquet and flavour, very toasty on the nose but aso very vital and vibrant, with lively acidity and a crisp, dry finish. A superb example of Grand Cuvée with extra bottle-age.

13/4/2022(Edition 163) Quite simply, a magnificent Champagne. The Krug hallmarks of nutty-biscuity barrel influence and rich fruit are there in abundance, spicy and ultra-complex, mightily powerful on the palate in an understated and superbly elegant way. Wow! (A blend of vintages 2000-2007, including 50% of the latter)

3/1/2024Classic Krug, nutty and full-bodied, but youthful and fresh, oak very well harmonised. Its freshness and purity surprised. This will go on for many more years if well cellared. (The 167th edition of Grande Cuvée, released about four years ago after seven years in tirage. Base vintage was 2011.)

25/5/2020(168th Édition) Pale yellow-gold, and invitingly fresh and promisingly biscuity and nutty in aroma, the complexity from its reserve wines, a subtly spicy note of oak and seven years in bottle is apparent, yet even as you sip, you’re taken aback by an immediate youthful intensity of flavour and a textured mousse of tiny, persistent bubbles that spread and dissolve evenly across the tongue with such purity and precision that it soon becomes clear that all this beguiling citrusy fruit and almond pastry sweetness is underpinned by a high tensile strength that’s about more than simply freshness and saline dryness but the building block of a structure that ensures a decade or more of life ahead of it. In a word, fabulous. (GBP £700 per 6 in bond).
