Krug
Grande Cuvée 171th Edition Champagne
Like when the 170eme came out, very lemony. Grapefruit, lime zest, yellow peach, white nectarine, tropical melons, tangerine, meringue, golden apple, baguette crust, soft yeastiness, the chalk and minerality is so soft and understated, it is a bit of reach to appreciate it is there and as beautiful it is, yellow and white florals, amazingly perfect acidity, wire to wire it is excellent with no drop off, well; knitted, structured, balanced, soft tension, excellent length and polish for days. Better young than the 170eme. @ K&L Champagne tasting.
