Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 6, 2021 - Champagne & Sparklers (Calistoga): It tastes like Krug. It tastes like the 166 served next to it. It’s kinda smooth. It’s kinda bubbly. It’s kinda fresh. It’s kinda oxidative. It’s kinda Krug.

From magnum. I favored the 168 a tick more, mostly so because its service was a bit cooler. The 166 was served a little warmer than the 168, so the 166 came off slightly flatter. When given the chance to cool back down for a half-second, it came into better form and mirrored the 168. As with most Krug I’ve experienced, there is a slight oxidative note that carries an underlying plantain flavor my palate just has trouble getting down with. For those who love Krug, this will be, well… just like Krug.
