*We offer Free Shipping over $300! (Excl. NT)
The 2004 Krug Clos du Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut is a rare and magnificent expression of single-vineyard Champagne, produced entirely from Chardonnay grown within the walled Clos du Mesnil in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. This legendary site, just 1.84 hectares in size, yields wines of astonishing purity, precision, and longevity. The 2004 vintage captures the crystalline clarity of the season—poised, mineral, and beautifully structured. Presented in its original wooden case, it is one of the most coveted releases in the Krug collection.
Vineyard and Winemaking
Clos du Mesnil, a single clos first planted in 1698, lies at the heart of the Côte des Blancs Grand Cru. The 2004 season offered a long, cool ripening period, producing grapes of remarkable freshness and balance. Fermented in small oak casks, the wine underwent extended ageing on lees for over 12 years before release, developing layered complexity while maintaining linear tension. Each bottle was crafted and numbered by hand, reflecting Krug’s devotion to detail.
Tasting Notes
Brilliant pale gold with a fine, persistent mousse. Aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, hazelnut, and fresh brioche unfold with subtle notes of chalk and lemon curd. The palate is both powerful and refined—showing concentrated citrus, green apple, and mineral precision balanced by gentle creaminess. The finish is extraordinarily long and focused, defined by energy, tension, and saline purity.
Style and Character
Krug Clos du Mesnil 2004 epitomises the elegance of Chardonnay from a single walled vineyard, revealing both restraint and depth. It is at once vibrant and serene, a Champagne of quiet power that speaks eloquently of its terroir. This release stands among the finest Blanc de Blancs ever produced, uniting rarity, craftsmanship, and timeless finesse.
Cellaring and Service
Exquisite now for its youthful vibrancy yet capable of evolving gracefully for decades. Serve chilled in a wide tulip glass to reveal its complexity and breadth. Ideal for grand celebrations or collectors seeking a true icon of Champagne.
