Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 2, 2022 - late disgorgement - a fantastic rendition of one of my favorite wines from Krug. Disgorged in 2017 and released a couple years later. Precise and focused deep yellow fruit with spice and nutty edges. Right now the late disgorgement creates a bit of a disjointed wine, where the oxidative aged notes on along the edges while the fruit is bright and piercing in the middle. They still need to fully integrate but seeing how much of a fresh edge the wine has right now in its core, I don't fear it falling apart like the 85/89/90 collections seem to be
