Lot Details

Description

Krug 1966

Reverse ullage: 1.5cm, label slightly soiled, foil slightly worn and damaged


48% Pinot Noir, 31% Chardonnay, 21% Pinot Meunier and 23 crus. In 2016 and with Olivier Krug (this is his birth year!), there is heather on the nose, together with saline notes. Green tomatoes, nougatine and peanuts on the palate, finishing on lemon notes - there is a lot going on here. So finely balanced and harmonious. Terrific stuff. Serena Sutcliffe, MW


48%黑皮諾、31%莎當妮、21% Pinot Meunier,葡萄來自23個葡萄園。2016年與Olivier Krug 一起品嚐(1966年正是他的出生年份!),洋溢石南花香和咸香。入口帶青番茄、牛軋糖和花生香味,最後以檸檬芬芳收結──驚喜迭出。整體平衡,細膩和諧。真是人間極品。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師MW)

Provenance


Buyers are provided a rare chance to acquire gems from a small part of the Transcendent Sale that took place between 29 to 31 March in 2019. Wines have been stored at Crown Wine Cellars since the sale and have not been moved until recently for re-inspection. Each bottle carries a commemorative special label. Majority of the older wines were purchased from Sotheby’s and other major auction houses. Many of the wines were purchased from the most important Single Owner sales. Some wines were purchased from a handful or reputable UK and European wine merchants, with recent vintages being bought on initial release. Buyers can refer to the Transcendent Catalogue for additional remarks.

This collection offers a fabulous selection of rare and mature Champagne. For instance, parcel quantities of Dom Perignon are on offer, spanning 8 decades, from 1926 to 1992. With a total of 494 bottles and 34 magnums.

In addition, Bordeaux and Burgundies spanning 6 decades are on full display with all French Classics such as DRC, Comte de Vogue, Coche Dury and Ramonet, Jaboulet, Lafite and Cheval Blanc.
