Description

A bottle of Krug 1988 in perfect order. It's been laying in Octavian for many years. 98/100 from the Wine Advocate in July last year, this has a long life ahead.

Best on WineSeaercher is £900 ex delivery. Reserve on this is £675

Krug's 1988 Brut has long numbered among my very favorite vintages for this house, with the best bottles flirting with a three-digit score. Offering up complex aromas of apricot, citrus oil, candied peal, toasted brioche and honeycomb, it's full-bodied, concentrated, and incisive, with a deep, layered and tightly wound core, racy acids and a searingly chalky finish. If on release the 1988 got less attention than the more immediate, head-turning 1990 and 1989 vintages, with time it is proving itself the most serious of those three consecutive releases.
