Pinot Noir 36%, Pinot Meunier 28%, Chardonnay 36%. Becoming more yellow brocade in colour. Beautiful, classic Krug greengages on the nose. Such an intense, bready bouquet. Very long on the palate. Such glorious taste of toast and candied fruit. Vanillin and apricots. Stunning. In 2008, big, imposing, and now mature at nearly 30 years old, with real weight and Krug gravitas.
