Friday, April 23, 2021 - Birthday Lunch at Les Amis (Les Amis, Shaw House): At Les Amis - this was very pleasing, and drinking fairly nicely as well. The nose was quite classic Krug, with notes of buttery brioche floating around ripe notes of red apples, salty preserved limes, and just a light twist of earthy mineral and spice. A very pleasing nose. The palate was very nice too - full and creamy, with a nice touch of bright acidity enlivening gently powerful flavours of white fruit, maybe a hint of hazelnuts, all touched with a of mineral and spice stretching off into an effortlessly long finish. Like most Grande Cuvée bottles, this will get better with a bit more time, but it is drinking deliciously even now. Lovely with a lobster dish.
