Description
Krug Clos du Mesnil 2009 is one of Champagne’s most coveted single-parcel expressions, made entirely from Chardonnay grown in the legendary Clos du Mesnil vineyard. Sourced from just 1.84 hectares in the heart of Mesnil-sur-Oger, it captures the precision, purity, and depth that have made this site one of the great names in Champagne.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense golden colour with a rich, luminous sheen. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of mature wheat, toffee apple, caramel, ripe citrus, and a subtle touch of toasted nuts.
On the palate, it opens with remarkable generosity and breadth, unfolding with notes of brown sugar, candied ginger, and pecan before fresh citrus energy takes over. The finish is long, elegant, and beautifully balanced, with the structure to age gracefully for many years.
Production
Clos du Mesnil comes from a single, walled vineyard parcel in Mesnil-sur-Oger, a village renowned for producing some of the finest Chardonnay in Champagne. The 2009 vintage reflects the character of this exceptional terroir, with Krug’s meticulous vineyard selection and vinification preserving the parcel’s individuality. As a blanc de blancs Champagne, it is crafted to express purity, tension, and the distinctive identity of this historic site.
Food & Serving
This is a Champagne for refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, turbot, roast poultry, or truffled risotto, and it can also shine with mature hard cheeses. Serve well chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider decanting only if serving from a very mature bottle or if you want to allow its more complex aromatics to open further.
Producer
Champagne Krug is one of the most respected names in the region, known for producing some of the world’s most distinctive and luxurious Champagnes. Clos du Mesnil was first created in 1979, when the Krug family chose to bottle a Champagne made entirely from grapes grown in a single parcel and one vintage, a bold move at a time when blending was the norm. Today, it remains a benchmark for terroir-driven Champagne and a tribute to Chardonnay at its finest.
