FOR SALE: 1 MAGNUM OF 1989 KRUG
This bottle has been in my family since release and is being sold in excellent, well looked after condition. It has spent its life in a cool dark cupboard and has hardly been moved since purchase.
Tasting notesd as follows:
WINE SPECTATOR:
Score: 94
Rich, lush aromas of dried fruit and citrus marmalade, this is Champagne at its most opulent. Honeyed and round on the palate, with fine acidity keeping it focused. Gorgeous now, yet will age well.--Krug vertical. Drink now through 2015.
The Cellar Tracker community have also been very praiseworthy, with many tasting notes. I will let you see these for yourself. I will simply provide you with the average rating, which is:
Community Tasting Notes (average 94.3 pts. and median of 94 pts. in 43 notes)
A sensible reserve has been placed on this bottle, that is more than fair, taking into account the current market value (approx £550 ex VAT for the magnum).
The bottle will be sent very securely wrapped and packaged, on receipt of cleared funds. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Please also see my other bottles for sale.
