It was 19 in TX Tues, hailed yesterday, and is 80 degrees today. Welcome to spring in TX.

I love the info on the back of these bottles as they give detail to the base vintage and when they were disgorged. This is ‘08 base, disgorged 2017.

Right up my alley. I’d call this oxidative, but not overly so. There is a Krug-ness about this style. It’s toasty and savory with a little caramel, toffee and baked apple. Creamy. For my personal taste, while I enjoy all champagne cold, this is one of the few styles that holds up well even once it warms up slightly as there isn’t a lot of tartness here. — 6 years ago

Lots of floral grapefruit, but not too much. A good example of new world SB that isn't excessive. — 8 years ago

Krug dinner. Grand cuvée 162 based on 2006 vintage. A fuller body, ripeness and lovely Krug allure. Bright acidity. Long but still compact. — 9 years ago

So special. Toasted almonds, lemon marzipan, brioche bread, intense dried fruit, nougat. Deep and intense with chalky minerality. Move aside Krug, Dom takes the spot as my favorite champagne house — 5 years ago

The fireplace reads, “Happiness is closer than you think, it comes in a glass of Krug!” Who am I to argue?

Every Christmas Eve and New Years Eve, I open a bottle of Krug Rosé. While their vintage cuvées are phenomenal, I really love their N/V Rosé.

It is delicate all the way around...shows such finesse and balance.

The nose so engaging. Cherry kirsch, strawberries, black raspberries, raspberry, pink grapefruit, tangerine, lean watermelon, light sea spray, soft of the softest most delicate; powdery chalkiness, sea fossils and volcanic minerals, hints of orange citrus rind, just a touch of baguette crust, light spice, fresh red floral and pink rose petals.

The body is rich and full yet feels like a feather on the palate. Super fine micro bubbles. Everything so beautiful, balanced and harmonious. Cherry kirsch, strawberries, black raspberries, raspberry, pink grapefruit, tangerine, blood orange, lean watermelon, peach, light sea spray, some of the softest most delicate; powdery chalkiness, sea fossils and volcanic minerals, hints of orange citrus rind, just a touch of baguette crust, light spice, fresh red floral and pink rose petals. The acidity is as perfect as it gets. The finish is absolutely incredible and persistent for minutes.

This bottle was corked in the summer of 2016. It’s a blend of 57 wines. The oldest is from 2000 and the youngest is from 2008.

I hope everyone is enjoying their Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas! Cheers!🎄🎁🎅🤶🦌⛄️❄️🍾🥂

For me and considering the price difference, this is close to Krug Rosé. It's doesn't bring the full joy and palate dance Krug gives. However, for a $160- $200 less, it's in the ballpark. The fruits shine; black cherries, cherries, strawberries, watermelon, tangerine, citrus blossoms & English biscuits. The chalkiness & minerality has precision and cuts sharply across the tongue. The acidity is perfectly crisp and the rich finish simply doesn't stop. This is certainly a benchmark of very good Rosé champagne. — 8 years ago

Rich, velvety, plush goodness washes over the tongue and lingers like high quality dark chocolate melting slowly. Plum, blackberry, currant, black pepper, leather and cedar all blend wonderfully. — 11 years ago
