In 2012, it is superb, with the patina of the vintage. Figs and raisins, opulent and glittering. I just cannot get enough of this - a poorly-disguised plea if ever there were one!

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
