Krug Rosé Champagne 28th Édition Gift Boxed 75cl

'97 points. Beautiful peach-pink color with a copper hue and a lot of floral nuances on the nose, offering dried cherries, peach skin and spices. It shows intensity and power, yet with elegance and precision. Full-bodied with a fine texture and phenolic tension. Bright and already delicious with some zesty, dried orange peel character at the end.' - James Suckling

'97 points. Offering aromas of peonies, orange peel, cinnamon, dried herbs, rose petals and ripe red berries, the NV Rosé 28ème Edition possesses a medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated palate with a vinous, creamy core of fruit framed by a vibrant, enrobing mid-palate that leads into a nicely phenolic, long, salty and mineral finish. This rendition—a blend of 58% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 17% Pinot Meunier—is one of this house's most powerful and well-executed Champagne rosé ever produced. It comprises 32 wines from vintages spanning 2010 to 2016, with the latter as the base, and red wine sourced from Aÿ.' - Robert Parker

The Rosé is a subtle pale pink colour which holds a promise of elegance. On the nose, ample aromas of rose hips, mulberries, redcurrant, peony and pink grapefruit are present. The palate offers delicate flavours of honey, citrus and dried fruit. The finish is long, which is enhanced by the Champagne's fine bubbles.

Krug Rosé 28th Édition pairs beautifully with a salty fish, but can also be enjoyed with foie gras, lamb, game, white meat, venison or even dishes with spices.
