The 1985 Krug Champagne is sensational, displaying a lovely straw color with fine bubbles and aromas of sweet honey, nuts, petrol and brioche. As this lingers on the palate the fine mousse subsides slightly and the acidity gives this wonderful lift and freshness. The mouthwatering flavors of lemon curd, toast and caramel are surrounded by a core of fruit, which leads up to the long lingering finish. This was a fantastic Champagne with a lot more time to go.
