Krug Vintage 2011 Brut (75cl)

A Champagne from Krug, designated 'L'Élégance Façonnée', from the 2011 vintage. The growing season was unusually warm in spring and cooler and wetter in summer. The cuvée is predominantly Pinot Noir, complemented by Chardonnay and Meunier, and undergoes extended maturation in Krug's cellars. It presents a luminous pale gold hue with fine, persistent effervescence. The bouquet reveals ripe citrus, white flowers, toasted brioche, dried fruit, ginger and saline minerality. On the palate it balances vibrant freshness with a rich, creamy texture, with candied lemon peel, almond and salinity leading to a long, harmonious finish.
