Krug, Grande Cuvée, Edition 166 NV

RRP £145

Rich, ripe and concentrated style, with huge complexity and an appetising creamy texture. While the oak tones are rather overt on the nose, the palate reveals great integration and elegance. The finish is long, with great acidity. This is a highly complex wine that will reward more time in bottle. (Xavier Rousset MS)
