Krug Rosé 26eme Edition NV Review
Despite being a brut rosé, fruit character is something of an afterthought in this delectable, salty, and mineral-driven Champagne. The palate is full-bodied and textured, with an exceptional concentration of flavors and tantalizing acidity. Though the price may be steep, this Champagne absolutely warrants the splurge for special moments.
