Krug Vintage Brut Champagne 1982

97 points Vinous

"The 1982 Krug Vintage, tasted from magnum, is truly special. Soft, delicate and fully mature, the 1982 still offers a good bit of persistence and nuance. But it won’t last forever. This is about as good as it gets for the 1982."

"This particular magnum of the beautiful 1982 Krug was an original release, rather the Krug Collection series, and it was interesting to compare notes between this and the Collection magnum of the ’82 I drank back at the end of 2015. The wine in its original guise is beautifully mature today, wafting from the glass in a complex and nicely tertiary blend of apple, peach, patissière, caraway seed, complex soil tones and a topnote of hazelnut. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and still impressively vibrant, with a superb core, great complexity, refined mousse and excellent backend mineral drive on the long, zesty and absolutely à point finish. This is at a different stage of its evolutionary arc than the Krug Collection 1982, but every bit as magical in its own right."
