Krug Rosé 20eme Edition Brut Champagne 1.5L [JG96][D94]

Producer: Krug Region: Champagne, France Blend: Sparkling Blend Year: Non-Vintage  John Gilman, 96 Points  "The Krug Rosé “20ème Édition” is starting to take full flight, as this marvelous wine from the base year of 2007, has had a chance to stretch out a bit as its structural elements have relaxed and it is now drinking with marvelous generosity. The cépages for this wine is forty-seven percent pinot noir, thirty-seven percent chardonnay and only sixteen percent pinot meunier, with roughly a third of the wines included in its make up being reserve wines. Today the wine is wide open and lovely, offering up a constellation of strawberries, cantaloupe, tangerine, chalky soil tones, plenty of smokiness, cinnamon, cardamom and a beautiful topnote of orange blossoms. On the palate the wine is pure, bright and full-bodied, with a generous personality, exceptional depth at the core, refined mousse and a long, zesty and seamlessly balanced finish of lovely complexity and breed. Great, great ju
