Community Tasting Note

  December 24, 2018 - This has always been a really big wine, even by Krug standards. It's ripe, with browning mature apple notes, a touch of coffee, and a full, weighty texture. It's not vibrant in the same way that the '88 or '96 are; it's larger-scaled but without quite the spine, so it definitely takes a good appreciation for mature notes in Champagne. It's not unbalanced by any stretch, just big. With some Japanese beef this actually played better than a younger No Rhone... it's got the density and body. Good stuff.
