A prestige Champagne from the House of Krug, bottled at 12% ABV in a 750ml bottle.
Dubbed 'Hommage au Chardonnay', the 1998 blend is approximately 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 20% Meunier, with first fermentation partially in 205-litre oak casks and 13 years ageing on the lees before disgorgement at a dosage of 6 g/l.
The nose shows ripe yellow fruit, dried apricot, honey, toasted hazelnut, roasted walnut, smoke, chamomile and spring blossom; the palate brings lemon meringue, baked apple, dried fruit, citrus zest, gingerbread and graphite, with a long finish of hazelnut, porcini mushroom and orange peel.
