Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
The 2008 Krug is long anticipated, and tasting this tiny release, it's clear to see why. There's lots of citrus on the nose, with a distinct sherbet character, and plenty of pure fruit, too. There's a real sense of energy and drive to this Champagne, which has an abnormal amount of Pinot Meunier in the blend: 25%. Krug have dubbed it "Classic Beauty", but a more literal translation of the French sobriquet "élégance intemporelle" would be timeless elegance, which seems to be slightly more befitting of this charming Champagne. It's a wine that won't blow you away immediately, but rather that builds and seduces, amazing with complexity, purity, and precision.
