Wine Spectator

Alison Napjus

Incredibly fresh and vibrant, this stunning Champagne weaves a tightly knit skein of ripe pear and tangy yellow plum fruit flavors together, with accents of rich pastry cream, toasted brioche, elderflower, ground cardamom and coffee liqueur. Shows a beautiful texture. A thread of salinity winds through to the lasting finish. Disgorged fall 2013. Drink now through 2029. 832 cases made.

Falstaff

Radiant yellow gold with silver glints, lively mousse. A mineral-citric underlay of fine yellow apple with sweet oriental spices, some nougat, a dash of fresh ginger. Complex, with a hint of honey and stone fruit undertone, orange zest and quince jelly nuances, taut acidic structural background, straightforward and precise in the finish. Expressive in the aftertaste, fine nutty nuances, but also lemony accents, which linger. Possesses a promising ageing potential, a magnificent food companion. (8671 bottles and 659 magnums)

Description

A powerful and intense Champagne

The Krug Clos du Mesnil is produced on a plot of 1.84 hectares in Champagne that gives a very rare Chardonnay wine.

At tasting, the Krug Clos du Mesnil 2003 offers a vibrant, bright golden-yellow colour. The nose exudes aromas of praline, hazelnut, ginger and spice. The palate reveals a powerful and intense wine that come from honey, quince and candied citrus flavours. The finish offers a hint of lemon and a good length.
