Re: Received gift of Krug NV Grand Cuvee -- anyone tried it?

Posted by marc g. on December 27, 2005 at 15:46:33:
I guess after filling two 40 pound crawfish sacks with Champagne corks you ought to know a little something about Champagne!! I still can't get over those damn things. I know my contribution to them doesn't add up to much, but I still like to know I put a couple in there :)
I only tasted Krug once - at your place years ago. Haven't been able to bring myself to splurge on a bottle, though I did buy a bottle of Cattier Femme for New Years. I did just recently try the poor man's Salon - the 97' (or was it 99') Delamotte and thought it just ok. I'd rather the Pipier myself, but not for the $43 that Hugh's is raping folks for it :|
I'll tell you what, it's the Calvados that's kicking my ass, or my wallet's ass anyway!! Since Katrina, I'm almost done with my third bottle!! I might have to switch to Draon if this keeps up. Ok, I won't go that low.... Robert Groult is my current bottle. I really wish I could get more the the Berneroy 25 yr old myself as I think it is (or was) a great value for me. Later gator.
