All the Vintages produced by the House of Krug embody the distinctive expression of a year and its character. A Krug Vintage is the blend of the most expressive wines produced in the same year and enriched by over ten years of rest in the House's cellars. Krug 2006 tells a story of concession, roundness and elegance, nicknamed by the Maison “Capriccio Aromatico”. |
"A wine that is a blast, with a vibrant and inviting brilliance and focus, well matched with the opulence of a great 2006 Champagne. Richly perfumed, offering notes of nutmeg, cardamom, jasmine, lemongrass, espresso and toasted hazelnuts, all wrapped up in a heart of fruity flavours of blackcurrant and mandarin. Wonderfully creamy and complex, it glides across the palate towards a long, lingering finish."

Intense golden color
ON THE NOSE:

ON THE PALATE:
Hints of nougat, pastries, tarte tatin and fragrant citrus fruits with an extraordinary persistent finish that closes on pink grapefruit.
