Additional Wine Notes

Based around the 2007 vintage (a good year for Chardonnay, less so for the red grapes), making up 73% of the final wine, the remainder made up of reserve wines from as far back as the 1990 vintage. 37% Pinot Noir, 32% Chardonnay and 31% Pinot Meunier, a much higher proportion of Pinot Meunier than usual.

Producer Notes

There are those that balk at Krug’s prices and see them as elitist and unapproachable and there are those that believe them to be the king of Champagne.
The original Mr Krug was a German but Krug Champagne is pretty much the archetype of French Champagne. It is also our favourite Champagne here at Nemo. The wine ages splendidly and when 20-30 years old, develops a more toasted, Rich-Tea-biscuit flavour which we adore.
istorically, they have offered a Grande Cuvee, a vintage and a rosé Champagne as well as Le Clos de Mesnil which is a single vineyard blanc de blancs. The range of wines is now a little extensive but we would still recommend the non-vintage, the vintage and the Clos du Mesnils.
