An enchanting bouquet. Full round aromas. A flavor of roasted hazelnuts whos depth is drawn out in the mouth ending in a flowery fresh note.

Rating

The complex nose of grain, biscuit, citrus and honey indicates some use of wood, while the palate is tight and elegant. What’s most impressive is the texture, all filigree and finesse, from start to finish. An elegant version, with subtle intensity and length. Drink now through 2010. 5,500 cases imported. Score: 94. —Bruce Sanderson, November 30, 2005. Wine Spectator 94 points This multivintage blend nails the essence of Krug, intense richness of fruit and flavor without weight. Meaty mushroom and soy aromas are balanced by rich red fruits, citrus, toast and mineral notes. Long finish. Score: 94. —Joe Czerwinski, December 01, 2005. Wine Spectator 94 points Oddly, the most consistent Krug wine I have been tasting lately is their non-vintage Brut Grand Cuvee, a big, boldly styled Champagne with smoky, earthy, pear, apple, and spicy aromas as well as flavors, loads of effervescence, and fine body and depth. Score: 93. —Robert Parker, December 2005. Wine Enthusiast 93 points

Food pairing

Accompanies food well as long as not too acid or sweet, and all traditional and excotic dishes.
