A bottle of Krug 1973 vintage Champagne, a blend of 51% Pinot Noir, 16% Pinot Meunier and 33% Chardonnay.
'A wonderfully accesible Champagne that fills the room with its euphoric bouquet of honey, peach and apricot. The taste is concentrated and developed, with an expansive fruit and silky-smooth structure. The '73 is made in the same style as the '79 and the '66. A cassic Krug! 95/100' Richard Juhlin, 4000 Champagnes, tasted 2003

Condition
Please see images for fill level and label condition. Note damage to the label and corrosion to the foil, which is extremely fragile. The foil will crumble if shipped and is despatched at the buyer's own risk. We recommend this bottle for collection only.
The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.
This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
