Critics Ratings

'Krug's 1988 Brut has long numbered among my very favorite vintages for this house, with the best bottles flirting with a three-digit score. Offering up complex aromas of apricot, citrus oil, candied peel, toasted brioche and honeycomb, it's full-bodied, concentrated and incisive, with a deep, layered and tightly wound core, racy acids and a searingly chalky finish.' - William Kelley, Wine Advocate, 98/100 (Jul 2020)

'Deep gold. Savoury golden nose somehow, with tiny beads slightly struggling to reach the surface. The opposite of rich! Very Krug. Pleasure and almost pain. An intellectual wine with an amazingly long aftertaste.' - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Nov 2018)
