Wine Spectator

Alison Napjus

Rich and mouthwatering, this powerhouse Champagne is driven by vivacious acidity, with an expansive palate featuring flavors of glazed apricot, toasted brioche, candied kumquat and ginger, espresso crème, fleur de sel and cognac. The well-spiced finish is long and lingering. Disgorged summer 2013. Drink now through 2030. 949 cases made.

Magnum. ID 411050. Disgorged winter 2012-13. 42% Pinot Noir, 43% Chardonnay, 15% Pinot Meunier. Named ‘Stormy Indulgence’ owing to the unusual and climatically chaotic year. On 2 July a violent hailstorm fell on nearly 4,000 ha, representing some 13% of the appellation’s total area. Harvest took place between 11 September and 25 September. Tasted blind. Mid greenish straw. Rather similar nose to the third sample of the 2002. Light and fresh on the nose. Intense tropical-flower nose. Strong and floral and exotic. Emphatic. Relatively mellow. Long undertow. Builds to a beautiful conclusion. Quite sweet start. (JR)

Description

The Krug Vintage 2000 presents a bright golden robe and has bubbles of a rare finesse. On the nose, the bouquet is extremely rich and shows a remarkable complexity with fragrances of candied citrussy fruits, exotic fruits, apricot, honey and raisin. Afterwards, notes of cocoa, pastry and toasted almonds can be discovered, which enhance the bouquet of this champagne. Finally, vanilla and spicy accents underline the rest of the bouquet. The palate opens up on a distinctive freshness and a slow and steady increase in intensity. The finish amazes by its length and spicy note.
