Krug Clos d'Ambonnay 2008 + Case – The Most Exclusive Blanc de Noirs on the Planet
The Krug Clos d'Ambonnay 2008, in a luxury case, is one of the rarest and most coveted bottles in the world of Champagne. Made exclusively from Pinot Noir from a single walled vineyard of just 0.68 hectares in the Grand Cru of Ambonnay, this Blanc de Noirs demonstrates that Champagne can express terroir with the same precision as the great wines of Burgundy.
The Clos d'Ambonnay 2008 presents a deep and luminous golden color. The nose is majestic: macerated red fruit, faded roses, soft leather, spices, and a fascinatingly deep mineral background. On the palate, the texture is almost viscid in its richness, with an acidity that supports a body of extraordinary complexity. The finish lasts for several minutes.
For the most selective collectors looking for the ultimate expression of terroir in the form of bubbles. One of the most extraordinary bottles of this century.
