Krug Clos du Mesnil 1986 w/box 750ml

Winespectator.com, Dec 31, 1998
Unusually generous for a lean vintage. This has mellow, mature flavors of toast, honey and nuts and tight fruit accents. It's appealingly dry and smooth. Drink now through 2000. 1,200 cases made.

Krug was established in 1843 by Joseph Krug and has since specialised in producing only prestige and specialised champagnes. Krug is the only firm still producing all its champagne in small oak casks, an essential element for developing Krug's intense bouquet and complex flavours. Today, Henri, Rémi and Olivier Krug, who supervise every step of production, tasting and blending, represent the 5th and 6th generations.
With long periods of maturation (6-8 years), Krug champagne continues to age gracefully after release, developing an intensely rich, nutty flavour whilst remaining remarkably fresh.
