Ultimate Krug Champagne 'clos Du Mesnil' Blanc De Blancs 2008 Flash Sale: 95% Off [e0VyNARL]

At first sight, a light, golden mineral hue.

▪  On the nose, notes of citrus, lightly toasted aromas, orange madeleine and the menthol signature of this small plot.

▪  On the palate, citrus in all its forms and grapefruit skin give way to ripe and candied citrus flavours and notes of barley sugar, with a delightful bitterness. This champagne is elegant and chiselled, all the while silky and generous.

 The year 2008 was one of Champagne’s coolest in 14 years, and also one of the region’s least sunny in almost half a century. Rainfall was normal throughout the growing season and the summer was dry, followed by a climatic lull prior to harvest.

▪  Due to temperatures without any hot peaks, in 2008, grape maturation was slow and steady.

▪  The harvest of the Clos du Mesnil took place on September 18th, 20th, and 21st of 2008 and afforded grapes with intense freshness and elegant expression that made for beautifully structured wines.
