Oyster shells, bright lemon, salinity and steel. Lots of secondary notes but a delicious, limpid harmony. This is fantastic. Restrained and complete

This historical bottle coming from Uzan family cellar. Bought in 2004 government auction after family assets were seized by Turkish Government. Great example for a 30 year old Krug Clos Mesnil.

Beautiful nose of toasted coconut followed by an exquisitely rich palate. Yum!

Krug precision at its best. Lime and apples. Became more limey and toasty

Wow. Best Champagne in recent memory. So much Mesnil energy--the fruit started coming out ~2 hours after opening. Just starting to open up and show its greatness, I'd hold onto it for another decade if I had any. Actually, no I wouldn't. It's just too damn delicious.
