Blend and Origin
Krug Clos d’Ambonnay 2002
This blanc de noirs champagne is crafted from 100% pinot noir grapes sourced from the tiny walled plot of Clos d’Ambonnay in one of the most illustrious villages to grow pinot noir in Champagne. Consistently mild and mostly dry weather in 2002 helped the grapes mature fully, while after 14 years in the Krug cellars, an extraordinary finesse is revealed. Only 4,743 bottles of this rare champagne were released.
Additional delivery charges may apply. This product can only be purchased by persons over 18 years of age.
