  This one was with fine bubbles and all the Krug elements you love and expect. Some dried fruits, lemon tarte and oriental spices. 97

  not blind
  from the 60ies. Still bubbles and the full package of a perfect aged Champagne but the freshness is mind blowing. Dried fruits, some almond chocolate, orange tarte. Great 99

  BYOK with Olivier Krug at Next (Chicago, IL): Mid to late 1960s release. For me, more interesting than good at this point. Scarcely any effervescence left. Dark colour, closer to a light sherry than champagne, with distinct brownish hues. Almost certainly a wine with incredibly high dosage, as the sweetness is very distinct. Lots of mushroomy notes as well. A pleasure to try.
