Krug 1988 exhibits a deep golden color indicative of its maturity. The nose is complex and exotic, revealing aromas of white fruits, truffle, spices, honey, slightly browned apples, and a hint of intense flowers, complemented by a gentle nuttiness in the background. On the palate, it offers a rich, soft, and zesty experience with flavors of toast, yeast, citrus, smoke, caramel, pineapple, nuts, and light honeyed fruits. This Champagne is drinking beautifully now, showcasing both freshness and maturity. ​

Krug

Since 1843 six generations of the Krug Family have been creating the finest and rarest Champagnes. Behind every precious drop of Krug stands the dream of a visionary. One man who long before others understood that the essence of Champagne is pleasure. So over 170 years ago Joseph Krug broke with convention to follow his vision: to create the most generous expression of Champagne every year regardless of climatic unpredictability. Thanks to an uncompromising craftsmanship a unique individual plot by plot approach from harvesting to blending an unparalleled library of 150 reserve wines and an exceptional cellar aging Krug is the benchmark when it comes to the best champagnes in the world.
