The blend is somewhat of a mystery but has Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and Petite Syrah grapes, maybe a splash of something else from year to year. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits and an array of spices. On the palate flavors of black plum, raspberry and cacao with notes of toasty oak, baking spices and earthy notes. Fine tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy notes. Chill in frog for about 15-20 minutes before serving. Pair this with grilled pork or bbq meal. — 7 days ago
This wine has an interesting history. Please read the pro ratings. It was rather pricey and in my opinion - not great value for money. Yes, highly drinkable. Went well with faro, asparagus parm risotto and some filet tips. Everyone enjoyed. Somewhat fruit forward, somewhat juicy, deep red color - fine and everyone enjoyed it. However, you can definitely find something better at the price point that would satisfy and pair with food equally well if not better. Don’t mean to knock it - since I have 2 bottles remaining - but meh! — a month ago
The Vinloq System was designed for still wines only. However, we love sparkling wines too.
👃Very expressive nose with nice interplay between the predominant minerality and the brioche, strawberries, marzipan, and florals
👅A rich and assertive profile with plenty of acidity and crisp bubbles that deliver energy and joy. It is both assertive and pretty. Just the right amount of sweetness keeps the fruit fresh and delicious. Long finish. Great with food or easily has enough verve to drink on it's own.
Drinking well. Excellent value for a rose from a major Champagne house🥂🥂

20th edition, 2007 base. With Indian food at Vij in Vancouver, first time w the Krug rosé and simply stunning. The depth of flavor and persistence were amazing yet it maintained a delicacy. Red fruited, stunning. — 11 days ago
