Krug, Rose 27eme Edition Vintage:N.V.

Krug, Rose 27eme Edition Vintage:N.V.The NV Ros 27me Edition, much like the Grande Cuve 171me Edition, was created based on the 2015 vintage and is complemented with 38 reserve wines sourced from nine different years (which makes up 55% of the blend). The youngest reserve wine dates back to 2015, while the oldest goes all the way back to 2005. Additionally, the blend includes 10% Pinot Noir, sourced from A and Mareuil sur A. This delightful ros boasts a stunning, fresh bouquet of peony,

textured flavors that are at once concentrated and muscular yet refined and very stylish

Hints of caramel along with almost Chenin-like quince and pear concentrate and subtle

dry and refined finish that is sufficiently firm to reward at least a decade of cellaring

The 2000 Cantenac Brown is a vintage that I last tasted just after bottling

There is a lovely mouth feel to the attractively intense and well-concentrated flavors that coat the palate with dry extract before culminating in a refined

fresh and lively

Pretty sweet but also piquant

various black fruit nuances and plenty of earth and game scents

Exceptionally rich

earth and violet aromas that complement well the complex
