【Krug｜殿堂級香檳嘅奢華體驗】 Krug，一直被酒界稱為香檳界嘅「勞斯萊斯」。呢個來自法國香檳區嘅傳奇品牌，由Johann-Joseph Krug於1843年創立，一直堅持「極致複雜感」同「豐滿層次」嘅釀酒哲學，啱晒追求深度同韻味嘅香檳迷！ 每一支Krug年份香檳都展示著特定年份嘅獨特個性——由當年最具表現力嘅基酒調配而成，之后喺酒窖經歷十幾年陳釀升華。 2013係一個涼爽多雨嘅年份，喺生長季緩慢、果實晚熟，且再度迎來高酸度挑戰嘅背景下，酒莊透過獨特工藝，令到香檳嘅香氣豐度同質地更顯突出。Tasting Committee為呢個年份香檳取佐個特別嘅名「璀璨柑橘」（Exalted Citrus）。 TASTING NOTE BY WINE CRITICS Originating from an October harvest, Krug’s 2013 Brut has turned out very well, delivering—against the backdrop of the slow, late-ripening season and another high-acid test, qualities rendered all the more evident by the house’s methods—the requisite aromatic plenitude and textural properties. Disgorged in early 2024 with a dosage of five grams per liter, the wine emerges from the glass with a deep bouquet of lemon oil, fresh apricot and quince mingled with nashi pear and brioche crust, complemented by a top note of lightly burnt buttered toast. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, chiseled and racy-fresh, structured around a spine of incisive acidity and chalky extract, concluding with a long, citrus-driven, saline-tinged finish. RATING BY WINE CRITICS 96 Points by Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Adovocate, 2026
