Elegant, full-bodied and classic, Dom Pérignon 2013 is a well-balanced vintage that represents the Maison’s absolute commitment to creative and harmonious assemblage, highlighting the resonance between pinot noirs and chardonnays.
The result of a glorious year in the vineyards – marked by alternative extremes – it has spent some 10 years in the Dom Pérignon cellars and is now ready to reveal itself and be enjoyed as it should be.
When it comes to blending wines from so many different years, Krug has mastered the art. Its Grand Cuvée champagnes have reached a unique fullness of aromas and flavours that are the direct result of this kind of blending – characteristics that simply couldn't be achieved with the wines of a single year.
With this latest release – Krug Grand Cuvée 171ème Édition – the Maison has blended new wines from the complex 2015 season with reserve wines from its vast collection. All of Krug's prestige champagnes gain beautifully with the passage of time, and after seven years in the cellars, the character of this particular Édition is even more accentuated.
Deep yellow hue with a lustrous sheen.
Ultra-fine, dynamic bubbles.
Intense, concentrated bouquet of yellow fruit (white peach, mirabelle plum) combined with a delicious concentrated toastiness in the form of roasted hazelnut and almond aromas. Perfect, seamless and complex marriage of the almond, wheat and sweet pollen notes from the Chardonnay with the juicy red fruit of the Pinot noir.
Concentrated, energetic and vibrant on the palate, starting out as a silky, almost oily, caress, with soft flavours of candied citrus and iodised spices. Then the powdery texture becomes tauter and the pure, precise and chiselled freshness crescendos. The salivating finish is underpinned by slightly oaky, sappy and saline notes that create a simultaneous sensation of delicacy and concentration!
