The nose is vivid and exotic, opening with apricot, passion fruit, lemon confit, marzipan, and baked apple tart, rounded by a subtle, distinctly French nuance that adds elegance and complexity.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is dramatic and dynamic, with a striking balance of richness, freshness, and precision. Its layered structure unfolds beautifully with time in the glass, revealing more nuance and dimension as it opens. While already compelling now, it has the concentration and balance to age gracefully for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKrug Vintage 2013 comes from Champagne, France, where the growing season produced a distinctive and memorable vintage.
