The wood treatment isn’t shy though neither is it dominant on the very ripe yet fresh nose that exhibits notes of dark raspberry

Terrific and worth a close look

Succulent black cherry

perhaps just a little sweetness

No lift or juiciness

Krug, Grande Cuvee Edition 165 other_regions_italy The wood treatment isn’t shyThe NV Grande Cuve 165me dition is showing well, offering up a lovely bouquet of warm bread, honeycomb, peachy fruit, smoke and lemon oil. On the palate, the wine is medium to full bodied, layered and beautifully integrated, with excellent depth at the core, a fine mousse and a long, chalky finish. Built around the 2009 vintage, the 165me isn't as powerful or fleshy as the 167me dition, but if anything, it's even classier and more harmonious at this
