The 2013 Krug Brut Millésime is just being released now at age thirteen. It was a cooler vintage, which has given rise to a beautifully unique expression of this bottling. The wine’s cépages in 2013 ended up being...

An appealing sense of form and lift and evident tannic grip with depth and freshness to the berry fruits. Still far softer than other vintages of Trotanoy but this will reward taking your time with to uncover its gentle...

Dom Ruinart 2013 is a blanc de blancs of lithe, satin-smooth beauty already upon release, very much built around the reserved, cool energy of the 2013 vintage. This cuvée's new aromatic range, amplified since the 2010...
