CHAMPAGNE VINTAGE
Krug Clos D’Ambonnay
Category: Champagne, Champagne Vintage
Product
The third vintage from this tiny Clos following 1995 and 1996, this is a Champagne with a big, rich and deep colour and with big aromas too: yeasty and nettly deep, with a touch of nougat before huge structure on the palate. There is a hint of red fruit, but there is some tannin too and a meaty, umami richness and very tight, decisive acidity that creates a wine of great substance but length and finesse too. 96/100.
