Heiner Lobenberg om:
Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

98
/100

Edition 164 er baseret på den allerede legendariske champagne-årgang 2008, der kombinerer maksimal intensitet med utrolig friskhed og kraft. Basisvinene fra 2008 lover champagnerne fra og med denne årgang et liv, der sandsynligvis vil vare evigt. Selv i dag er mange af dem stadig utroligt unge og tætte og har brug for meget mere tid og luft end 2007'erne og 2009'erne, men de vil næsten helt sikkert overgå dem på lang sigt. Selv om 164'eren allerede har et par år under kork, kan og bør du være tålmodig med at åbne den. 98/100

Suckling om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

A richness and intensity with pie crust, bread dough and toast with lots of dried fruits. Almost nutty, like buttered nuts. It's full and layered. A little heavy now but more for the table. Drink now. 98/100

Galloni om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

A stellar Champagne, Krug's NV Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition, (2008 base vintage) is painfully tight. The 164 is a fabulous wine, but readers should not fall into the temptation of opening a bottle anytime soon. Crushed rocks, slate, mint, sage and white pepper lend striking aromatic brightness. The 164 is just as compelling as it has always been. Even so, it needs time to be at its very best. The 164 is a blend based on 2008, with reserve wines back to 1990. Krug ID: 316031. 97/100

Lisa Perrotti Brown om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

Krug’s Grand Cuvee 164ème Edition is a blend of 127 different wines composed around the 2008 vintage with the oldest reserve wines from 1990. This barrel fermented blend of 48% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 17% Pinot Meunier presents opulent aromas of orange marmalade, dried apricots, apple tart, coffee, and butter croissant. The plush medium to full-bodied palate is bright and vivacious with notes of kumquat and preserved lemon intermingled with rich and light buttery puff pastry notes. Still young and lively, it finishes long with an attractive note of lemon zest. According to the Krug iD317025 the bottle tasted was disgorged in the third quarter of 2017 for release a year later in 2018. 97/100

Parker om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

Based on the 2008 vintage, Krug's NV Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition is really beginning to drink with some style, bursting from the glass with complex aromas of tangerine oil, crisp yellow apple, dried fruits, buttered toast, iodine and honeycomb, uniting attributes of youth and maturity, all wrapped up in Krug's signature toasty patina. Full-bodied, seamless and concentrated, with a fleshy core of fruit, racy acids and an envelopingly pillowy mousse, it's an intense, sapid wine that is emerging as one of the best "young" renditions of Grande Cuvée for drinking today. 96/100

Decanter om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

This is a thrilling Champagne of magnificent autolytic complexity on the nose with elements of spice, pastry, bread, and hazelnuts. Its freshness and liveliness on the palate - allied to a crystalline texture - are so vivid that they stir the emotions. An enthralling element of grilled toast stands out on a fleshy texture that leads the way to an eerily airy finish. A great classic that can be enjoyed now. Elaborated with 127 different wines from 11 vintages, the oldest of which dates back to 1990. 32% reserve wines. Dosage: 4.5g/L. 96/100

Wine Spectator om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

A seamless Champagne, with vibrant acidity and flavors of toasted almond, baked currant and golden raisin. Long and mouthwatering, with a finely detailed bead carrying the flavors to the lasting finish, with accents of spice, pastry cream and coffee. Disgorged spring 2016. Drink now through 2027. 96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 Édition Brut

Harmonious and supple, the NV Champagne Grande Cuvée 164 spans the vintages of 1998 through 2008 and has all the components of a truly great Grand Cuvée. Opening in the glass to notes of preserved Meyer lemon, white peach, almond croissant, and incense, on the palate the wine is custardy and rounded, with a gorgeous pillowy mousse. Full-bodied and long, all its structure works in concert, with nothing sticking out, and it has a flourish of white pepper spice on the finish. This is a truly stunning Champagne. Drink 2023-2040. 96/100
