Krug, Clos du Mesnil 1990 Krug, Clos du Mesnil 1990 Lots 83-89: Excellent level and appearance, packed in individual owc within oc In 2011, the bouquet of this and the 1990 Krug are, amazingly, becoming more similar. Mandarins and fresh linen on the nose. Then a touch of walnuts and honey. Fabulous freshness on the palate with a smidgen of grapefruit. Very creamy. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 83 1 bt (owc) Lot 84 1 bt (owc) Lot 85 1 bt (owc) Lot 86 1 bt (owc) Lot 87 1 bt (owc) Lot 88 1 bt (owc) Lot 89 1 bt (owc) per lot: GBP 360-440 per lot: USD 580-700 per lot: EUR 420-520 Few great wine collectors, even if they concentrate on red wines, bypass Krug Champagne. Its power and sheer vinosity appeal to a connoisseur of the greatest Bordeaux and Burgundy, and collectors have a tendency to preface their tastings and dinners with a glass of this majestic Reims "institution". Some go so far as to organise vertical tastings of Krug in its own right, recognising the unique properties of this Champagne in terms of development and maturity. Krug is the Rolls Royce of Champagnes. Serena Sutcliffe, MW LYING IN GREENFORD, MIDDLESEX Offered Duty Paid only Quantity: 1
