Krug Clos du Mesnil 2008

We invite you to discover the Soloist, the expression of the extreme purity of Krug Clos du Mesnil: from a single plot – Clos du Mesnil – a single grape variety – Chardonnay – and the harvest of a single year – 2008. This 1.84-hectare (4.5-acre) vineyard has been protected by walls since 1698. The vineyard is located in the heart of Mesnil-sur-Oger, one of the most iconic villages for Chardonnay in the Champagne region.

On the nose, notes of citrus, lightly toasted aromas, orange madeleine and the menthol
signature of this small plot. On the palate, citrus in all its forms and grapefruit
skin give way to ripe and candied citrus flavors and notes of barley sugar, with a delightful bitterness. This champagne is elegant and chiselled, all the while silky and generous.
