First produced in 1944, Vintage Selection is the ultimate expression of the Charles Krug portfolio, an elegant, artfully balanced wine that has stood the test of time. The 2016 release incorporates pristine fruit from three flagship vineyards: Voltz (39%) & Slinsen (32%) in Yountville & Cold Springs (29%) on Howell Mountain. This marks the first time in 75 years that mountain fruit has been incorporated into our signature offering. The finished wine features inviting aromas of black fruit, toasted caramel & vanilla seamlessly integrated with flavours of black cherry, boysenberry & tobacco that linger on the finish.

Lovely vibrant crimson/magenta hue. Deep colour, less so than the 2010, but still good depth & brightness. Delicious young Grenache lift is evident with a little touch of sweet marzipan that seems unique to this vintage. On the palate, just the right amount of acidity, crisp flavours & fleshiness. ...
