Wine Spectator score: 96/100

Rating for France-Champagne: 95 (good year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: drink now<br/>

solid fine bubbles within a dark golden colour. typical krug bouquet still forming but the impact and finish shows much more maturity than krug 1990, 1995 and 1996. very savoury. uncle poon noted a slight bitter finish. uncle Bok noted a dryness to the krug. wonderful!
