2006 Krug Clos du Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut | 750ml

The 2006 Krug Clos du Mesnil is an extraordinary expression of terroir and craftsmanship from the House of Krug. Sourced exclusively from the walled single vineyard “Clos du Mesnil” in the heart of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, this Blanc de Blancs is a pure and powerful statement of precision, minerality, and refinement.

The 2006 vintage — warm yet perfectly balanced — yielded a Champagne of radiant intensity and crystalline structure. Aged over 12 years in Krug’s cellars before release, it reveals breathtaking depth and elegance in every sip. Only a limited number of bottles were produced, making it one of the most coveted releases among collectors and connoisseurs worldwide.
