Krug Clos Du Mesnil 2002 Magnum

Krug Clos du Mesnil 2002 Magnum is one of Champagne’s rarest and most coveted expressions, made exclusively from Chardonnay grown in a single, historic parcel in Mesnil-sur-Oger. Crafted to showcase the pure identity of one vineyard and one vintage, it reflects Krug’s uncompromising vision and has become a benchmark for site-driven Champagne.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep golden hue, hinting at richness and maturity. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of toffee apple, caramel, ripe citrus, lightly toasted nuts, and a gentle impression of mature wheat. On the palate, it opens with remarkable breadth and generosity, unfolding notes of brown sugar, candied ginger, and pecan before moving into a vibrant core of citrus fruit and striking freshness. The finish is long, elegant, and precise, with the balance and intensity to age beautifully for many years.

Production
Clos du Mesnil comes from a tiny 1.84-hectare walled vineyard in the heart of Mesnil-sur-Oger, one of the most revered Chardonnay villages in Champagne. The parcel’s chalk-driven terroir is a key part of its finesse, tension, and mineral precision. Krug’s philosophy here is singular: harvest and vinify the grapes from this one plot and one vintage to preserve the vineyard’s exact character.

Food & Serving
This Champagne pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast turbot, aged Comté, or truffle risotto. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C, and consider a short decant only if desired for a broader aromatic expression, though it is not strictly necessary.

Producer
Champagne Krug was founded in 1843 and has long been celebrated for its dedication to detail, individuality, and exceptional craftsmanship. Clos du Mesnil was first created in 1979, when the Krug brothers broke with Champagne convention by bottling a wine made entirely from one parcel in one vintage. Today, it remains one of the house’s most prestigious cuvées and a defining example of terroir-driven Champagne.
