Krug 2008 Vintage Brut Champagne

The 2008 vintage is a nervy, electrifying champagne, the likes of which has not emerged from Krug’s cellars since the magical 1996. Bright and sculpted, with tremendous precision, the 2008 dazzles from start to finish. Stylistically, the 2008 doesn’t have the toastiness or explosive breadth often found in young Krug, but that in no way detracts from its magnificent beauty. 97 PointsAntonio Galloni, May 2021

A vintage Champagne from this producer is rare. But 2008 was a great year in Champagne and that shows in this intense, still amazingly young wine. Freshness works with the richness to give concentration, density and the sure-fire possibility of long-term aging. So drink now, but the Champagne will last for many years. 97 PointsWine Enthusiast, December 2021
