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 Krugโ€™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 rosรฉ 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.
