The champagne Krug Grande Cuvée 162ème Edition Brut from the winery Champagne Krug has been rated in 2023 by Peter Moser with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the region Champagne in France.
Medium golden yellow in colour with brass reflections, showing the typical stronger colour of the vintage, with a very fine, persistent mousse. Attractive white stone fruit nuances on the nose, with delicate Golden Delicious apple, yellow plum, and greengage with a hint of orange marmalade and some underlying kumquat zest. The palate is finely structured with good complexity and a mineral core, equipped with an enchanting freshness for a warm year, with notes of white peach. Elegant with a delicate nutty finish, this is drinking well now but can be aged for many years to come. (11/5/2023).
More about the tastingMedium greenish-yellow, very delicate, vibrant mousse. A scented hint of patisserie, yellow plums, apple blossom nuances, a slight whiff of honey, smoky-spicy notes. Complex, juicy, delicate notes of yellow apple and fresh figs, silky texture, harmonised and well-balanced, expressive in the finish, perfectly matured. A supremely bountiful supper accompaniment.
