Krug in partnership with The Coburg bar at The Connaught, has launched
the first opportunity in the world to purchase Krug Clos d’Ambonnay 1995 by the glass. Created from a unique plot of land, Clos d’Ambonnay 1995 is Krug’s eagerly anticipated first new
champagne for over two decades, of which only 3,000 bottles have been produced. The Coburg bar will hold 12 bottles enabling Krug
lovers the unprecedented chance to sample this exceptional vineyard vintage.
This unique experience will be available for a limited time by appointment only. Guests will be greeted by a Connaught host and escorted to
a reserved table within the bar. Each party member will be offered a glass of Krug Grande Cuvée which will act as their initiation into the
heart of the Krug wine making and blending philosophy. The initial glass will be accompanied by bespoke canapés accentuating the
flavours reflected by the notes of the champagne.
To follow, the party will continue their exciting and unique champagne experience with a glass of Krug’s Clos d’Ambonnay 1995. Secretly
nurtured in the Krug cellars for a full 12 years, this rarest of all Krug champagnes at once asserts its personality with a deep, distinctive hue:
bright gold enriched with the warm gleam of copper. On the nose, Krug Clos d'Ambonnay 1995 allies charm and finesse to substance and
character, offering an early hint of the superb structure to come. On the palate, it is exhilaratingly fresh and lively, while at the same time
magnificently ample and mature, a resplendent harmony of brioche, grilled almonds, candied
spices and lush red berries. Its finish is elegant, endless – the unmistakable signature of a great wine and a grandiose champagne.
The Connaught launched The Coburg Bar in January 2008 honouring the original name of the hotel. The stylishly classic but contemporary
bar is designed by critically acclaimed interior Parisian based architect and designer India Mahdavi and is one of the first exciting stages of
the hotel’s £70 million refurbishment making it the perfect place to savour the Clos d’Ambonnay 1995 journey.
The Krug Clos d’Ambonnay
1995 experience can be reserved by contacting Mark Tucker F&B manager at The Connaught at
mtucker@the-connaught.co.uk.
Prices start at £780 a glass and the Clos d’Ambonnay at The Coburg experience is limited to a minimum of 4 people.
