香槟迷听到Krug这名字,就如男人见到法拉利跑车,女人见到Tiffany钻戒一样,双眼会发亮。Krug于1843年创办,现已传到第六代,是少有仍以家族式经营的香槟庄,正因为对家族声誉的一份执着,所以对出品更一丝不苟。
有人认为无年份香槟唔矜贵,其实要做到香槟的味道年年一样仲难, Krug嘅Grande Cuvee就是一个成功例子。这瓶最基本的无年份的Grande Cuvee已足够将别的香槟比下去,难怪它的价钱比一般无年份香槟贵一份。
Krug Grande Cuvee帶金黄色澤,當氣泡滑過舌面,迅即感到酒質的分量,口感creamy,散發如麵包糠及橡木氣味,接住是香料味,再來是乾果味,結尾甜中帶酸,像水果糖,有long finish。

||As you taste it, notes of toasted bread, hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar and jellied fruits may take you by surprise. You may even taste hints of apples still on the tree, flowers in bloom, ripe and dried fruit, almonds, marzipan, gingerbread, sweet spices and even brioche and honey. You may also notice its exceptional freshness in the mouth, with rich and tangy flavours of lemon and grapefruit enhanced by the subtlety of its fine and elegant bubbles. Krug Grande Cuvée can age beautifully.
