The five Champagnes were: Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 1998, Dom Pérignon 1998, Dom Pérignon P2 1998, Krug 1998 and Veuve Clicquot La Grade Dame Rosé 1998.
Prior to the 1998 tasting with Richard, guests were able to taste the current vintages: Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 2004, Dom Pérignon 2004, Krug 2003, Krug Grande Cuvée and Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame 2004.
The discussion then moved to Krug 1998, a uniquely Chardonnay-dominant Krug vintage. Complex, intense with easy-to-descirbe, bold flavours – Richard shares why he thinks Krug should be savoured for a long time.
