Krug Clos d'Ambonnay 2000

Krug Clos d'Ambonnay 2000 is one of Champagne’s rarest single-vineyard treasures, crafted entirely from Pinot Noir grown in a tiny 0.68-hectare walled parcel in Ambonnay. Exceptionally limited in production and aged for more than 12 years in Krug’s cellars, it captures the house’s uncompromising approach to detail, precision, and the expression of a truly singular terroir.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a luminous pale golden hue. The bouquet is layered and captivating, with notes of ripe wheat, gingerbread, candied orange peel, and a subtle hazelnut character that adds depth and refinement. On the palate, it is beautifully structured and impressively full, combining intensity with finesse before closing on a very long finish marked by a final hint of citrus.

Production
Clos d’Ambonnay comes from a single, enclosed vineyard in the heart of Ambonnay, an area highly regarded for its Pinot Noir. The parcel’s chalk-rich Champagne soils and excellent exposure help preserve freshness while building concentration and power. After careful harvest, the wine is vinified with the aim of preserving the purity and character of the site, then matured extensively in Krug’s cellars for over 12 years to develop complexity and elegance.

Food & Serving
This is a Champagne best enjoyed on its own or alongside refined dishes such as lobster, langoustines, truffled poultry, veal, or delicate mushroom-based cuisine. Serve chilled at around 10–12°C and consider decanting only if desired for a short time, as its complexity will gradually unfold beautifully in the glass.

Producer
Champagne Krug, founded in 1843, is one of the most celebrated houses in Champagne, known for its meticulous craftsmanship and distinctive approach to blending and ageing. Clos d’Ambonnay reflects the house’s dedication to exceptional terroirs and small-production prestige cuvées, earning recognition as one of the most iconic single-vineyard Champagnes ever created.
