Blend and Origin
Krug Vintage 2000
This vintage comprises 42% pinot noir, which provides power, 43% aromatic and expressive chardonnay, and 15% generous meunier. The year 2000 was extreme – hot, rainy and stormy, but the harvest was bountiful and the grapes were astoundingly rich, creating a vintage that combines the complexity and generosity of a very exciting year.
Additional delivery charges may apply. This product can only be purchased by persons over 18 years of age.
