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
Krug Clos du Mesnil 2006 presents a luminous golden hue reminiscent of ripe wheat. The nose reveals delicate aromas of citrus, barley sugar, and dried fruits, balanced by freshness. On the palate, it offers a generous expression of madeleines and brioche, with notes of tarte tatin and lemon meringue, culminating in a precise and graceful finish.
Food Pairing
This Champagne pairs beautifully with fish or shellfish dishes such as fillet of flounder in a saffron sauce, zander with beurre blanc, seared scallops, or tuna carpaccio. It also complements delicately flavored meat dishes like blanquette de veau.
