Tasting notes
Krug 2013 opens with notes of lemon and bitter orange , complemented by aromas of candied citrus, toasted almond, and honey. It reveals itself to be straightforward and precise, dominated by the freshness of citrus in all its forms. The ample structure on the palate stretches and lengthens with remarkable intensity. It will pair beautifully with seafood delicacies such as sea bass ceviche infused with ginger and lemongrass.

About this sparkling wine
Krug's 2002 Brut has an intense citrus colour and opens with a generous, intense yet fine and precise bouquet that indicates great depth and elegance. Red fruit flavours on the nose lead to a generously rich yet pure, highly refined and elegant palate, with lots of ripe cherry fruits and delicious yeasty flavours. This is a highly complex and tensioned but beautifully balanced 2002 with a charming dosage that gives perfect roundness. The finish, however, is clear, fresh and well-structured, if not taut, and very mineral.
