Peugeot's revolutionary Clef du Vin is a calibrated tool that allows you to immediately enjoy a good wine that has been opened before its ideal time. The Clef du Vin softens the acids of all wines and the tannins of red wines, making a good young wine more enjoyable, while revealing its ageing potential. Simply pour yourself a glass of wine, dip Clef du Vin dot in the wine for one second and note the changes in taste. Every second the dot is in contact with the wine reaveals on year's potential ageing. The dot, a patented alloy of metals, acts as a catalyst. It rapidly accelerates the oxygen reduction process, specifically targeting and softening the acids all wines (including sparkling) and the tannins of red wines. As they soften, the wine’s aromas and flavors that are normally... Less

Bottle Size:3--375 ml Wine Spectator:-- Robert Parker:94 Wine Enthusiast:-- N/V Krug Grand Cuvee Brut Champagne 375 ML Robert Parker Tasting Notes In Asia Jan 2009 Lisa Perrotti-Brown 94 Drink: N/A $126-$380 (0) I've always loved the bold, oxidative, exotically spiced style of Krug's a multi-vintage entry level superstar. The nose alone is worth savouring with its mouth-wateringly fresh baked apple pie and marzipan scents. The palate is rich, full-flavoured and very crisp with a wonderful combination of brioche, stone fruit and mineral flavours providing layers of complexity. Very well balanced and ready to drink though with enough concentration to cellar for another decade or so. Very long finish.
