AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
100/100 James Suckling
Krug 2008 tells, with both elegance and intensity, the story of a fresh and balanced year in Champagne, which the House’s tasting committee nicknamed “Timeless Elegance.” The unexpected variety of grape varieties results in great complexity, and a very wide spectrum of flavors and aromas was observed during the harvest. For the final blend, a rigorous selection of wines conveying all the complexity of 2008 was carried out, in an admirably structured composition marked by the elegance of that year. After 12 years in the cellars, Krug 2008 has gained in expression and shows a remarkable, precise, and harmonious profile.
Blend
This 2008 vintage champagne is the result of a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier
Tasting characteristics and advice for Krug 2008
Tasting
Appearance
The color is golden, bright, and intense.
Nose
The nose is expressive, rich, and generous, with mellowed fragrances of honey, licorice, menthol, orange peel, and grapefruit.
Palate
A lively, harmonious attack precedes a seductive palate of persistence, precision, and complexity. Quince, candied fruit, citrus, yellow kiwi, starfruit, honey, apple tart, butter biscuit, orange peel, peony, and fennel are among the aromas that mingle with floral and mentholated notes.
