Wednesday, October 11, 2017 - Chicago 2004 Krug Release (Chicago, IL): 214031. As far as the Grande Cuvee goes, this bottle was even better than the 164eme, at least in that it was much more approachable. It gives up its charms easily, and this embodies, in my mind, the bottle of "ready" Grande Cuvee. It's a softer and approachable champagne, and but the Krug concentration and power are all there. The lemony acidity of the 2004 vintage is here in spades, but I think the added extra juice does a lot of work to round out this wine. An iteration of the Grande Cuvee very much to my taste now.
