In the words of no less than James Halliday, "Krug is the greatest wine of Champagne". At the House of Krug every Vintage is crafted to be different. Every Krug Vintage reveals the expression of a particular year with its distinct character: it is the music of the year as captured by Krug. It is a blend of expressive wines from a single year enhanced by a stay of over ten years in the cellars. The result a manifestation of time, place and feeling that verily leaps from bottle to flute.

The Philipponnat family has owned and run its Champagne house in the heart of the wine-growing areas of Aÿ, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Averney for over 500 years. A family of vignerons, winemakers and merchants since the 16th century, they famously supplied their wines to Louis XIV, the Sun King. The houses 20 hectares of vines are Grand and Premier Cru, ensuring quality and intensity in the wines. Mont de Mareuil, where Clos des Goisses is located, has been planted with vines since the 16th century. The Domaine was acquired by Philipponnat in 1935, and immediately became its jewel. The vineyard is planted with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes that make up this exquisite wine. Bright gold, fine effervescence forming a persistent bead. Elegant and fruity with notes of fresh raspberries and raspberry eau-de-vie. The finish is precise with notes of praline, frangipane, sponge cake and pastry cream. The attack is fresh and pur while on the palate, the wine is very elegant and expresses slightly mentholated notes. The finish is long and mineral. A wine suitable for the finest of occasions!
