Country: France
Size: 750ml
ABV: 12%
Notes: Krug Clos du Mesnil 2006 is the nineteenth Champagne from this unique plot of Chardonnay. The first was created with the harvest of 1979. The circumstances of 2006 lent the year’s grapes a rare beauty, making this year exceptional. On the palate, it is generous and round with beautiful intensity. Initial hints of madeleine cake and brioche give way to notes of pastry, tarte tatin, lemon meringue, bitter orange and a little spice. The finish is long, with great tension and notes of candied ginger.
