These six Champagnes comprise one of the most thrilling visits I have ever had at Krug. I say that having been critical of some past wines here. The 2002 Vintage was underwhelming, while the 2011 Vintage was solid but not more. This year’s releases are simply off the charts. Krug fans will note the addition of a new wine, the Clos d’Ambonnay Rosé, and a library release of the 1985 Clos de Mesnil. Unfortunately, these wines are sure to come with hefty price tags. The Grande Cuvée 173ème Édition offers plenty of Krug character at a price that is more accessible.
