A pale golden-pink in the glass, this edition of Krug Rosé has redolent white strawberry, light biscuit and ripe peach on the nose. The palate is bright, fresh and crisp, with acidity lining the palate in a style that showcases the 2008 base in this blend. The fruit core is vibrant and juicy, packed with fruit and showing a very youthful side at this stage. The biscuit and brioche notes lie in wait in the background, and with time in the bottle you would expect them to shine through more, as evidenced by the persistence of these notes on the finish.
