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.
Description
The 2002 Krug Vintage Brut Champagne showcases a medium golden-yellow hue with silver shimmers and a very delicate mousse. The nose reveals scents of orange marmalade, white blossoms, and a delicate nutty undertone of biscuits, forming a multi-faceted, well-evolved bouquet. On the palate, it offers substantial texture with fresh yellow fruit, finesse, and balance, accompanied by notes of blossom honey, a hint of peach, fine caramel, and delicate dried fruit. The finish is very long, juicy, and animating, indicating great length and promising ageing potential.
Food Pairing
This Champagne pairs excellently with shellfish, crab, and lobster.
