When it comes to the bubbly stuff, people are often as loyal to one particular champagne house as they are to their tailor, dry cleaner or beer brand. Like a good Chanel suit, a bottle of dependable Dom or Cristal will never go out of style. But in the spirit of the New Year, I entreat you to branch out and give another champagne house a chance to be the “Wow!” on your palate at midnight. Krug Grand Cuvee—all the glory of a full-bodied white Burgundy, but with the elegant mousse (bubbles, for the rest of us) and the subtle nuances of a fine champagne. It’s a mosaic of three champagne grapes, 20-25 growths and six-10 different years, the blend recombined annually by the Krug family from memory and taste to give this champagne its complexity, elegance and consistency. Now, tell that to your friends, and won’t you be the hoity-toitiest of them all!
