I've been told that this Krug stuff is good. We probably should have jumped in a time machine and drank it in 10 years, but come on, we're eating Normandy butter, crazy fresh bread and various rich french entrees. And we decanted it.

1990: Corked, unfortunately. My mom had the best line, "It sure tastes better than it smells!" I recall what it was like on release, hard candy sweetness with a surprisingly light framework, particularly compared to both the '88 & '89 on release, and the crazy depth of the'90 Ch. Filholt Creme de tete, which was massively concentrated. This bottle still had oomph, yet wasn't all there. — 10 years ago
