Krug Rosé (75cl)

Krug Rosé is a prestige rosé Champagne from the House of Krug in Reims, France. First released in 1983, it blends Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier from several harvests with a portion of traditionally macerated Pinot Noir. Each blend draws on wines from several harvests, including reserve wines from the House's library, and each release is identified by its Édition number. The colour and red-fruit character come from Pinot Noir fermented on its skins, blended with the white wines before long ageing in Krug's cellars. Aroma: red berries and rose petal, with pink grapefruit zest and a peppery lift. Taste: fine, persistent bubbles carry red fruit, citrus and honey over a firm, fresh structure, with dried fruit and a savoury depth from the macerated Pinot Noir. Finish: long and precise, with red fruit, citrus zest and a light toasty note.
