Awesome to revisit this with some bottle age on it. Uncoiled, more presence on the nose and weight on the palate without sacrificing the precision I remember it having. Those nervy edges are starting to unravel. Carmalized apple/pear, golden orchard fruit and blossom, tart sweet citrus, spice laden minerality, almost salty on the finish. Pleasant surprise — 9 years ago
Yum! Do wish it were a little crisper, but overall pretty good — 10 years ago

As always, Krug is for me, the perfect illustration of power and fineness. The common thread amongst all of the bottles I have been fortunate to taste is a sense of luxury. In a wine, luxury is not an easy to define, but most certainly Krug has it. A generous nose of brioche, apple galette, quince and nutmeg. The mousse is quite fine, gracefully leading into full texture, and an acid spine that pierces through layers of crème and orchard fruit. And the finish—as long and languid as any great story arc. — 11 years ago

Beautiful copper hued, gorgeous fruit forward aromatics. Candied green apple, ripe pear, sweet citrus, orchard blossom, confectionaries, sweet dough. Palate is creamy, broad with a sense of nerve and weightlessness. Soulful and energetic to drink. Disgorged 12/2016 3g/l dosage. SV "Les Misy" 48 y/o vines. — 9 years ago
My favorite cider. A sweeter cider but well balanced and slightly spicy for an overall great flavor profile. Their Saskatoon cider is great if you are looking for something a little sweeter and more unusual. — 11 years ago
Lots of vanilla smooth — 11 years ago
A gin for those who don't like gin. It has a crisp clean taste and is very refreshing. Great with ginger-ale or in a French 75. — 11 years ago
Really great Sauvignon Blanc! One if the top five Sauvignon Blancs I have ever tasted. I had a great time wine tasting at Orchard Station Winery! Great guy owns this winery - if you go there, check out his classic Corvette! — 12 years ago

In the tradition of ice wines and ice ciders. Slightly effervescent and pairs wonderfully with roast turkey. — 10 years ago
Intriguing musty nose of wild mushroom and turning egg. On the palate, super ripe Mellon, warm creme anglaise, orange orchard floor after rain storm and Mexican vanilla. This wine is showing incredibly right now. — 11 years ago

There’s so much here it’s hard to put in words! Magical is a good descriptor... Notes range from orchard fruit, white flowers, hay, kettle corn, with a striking minerality always coming through. — 8 years ago
