We celebrated the recent sale of my company with some good friends last night and to mark the occassion I took along a bottle of 1985 Krug (Champagne) It's a bottle that we've had since 1997, one that was given to my Wife at a corporate event (a freebee!) that we both attended before we were a couple, and its been sitting patiently in my cellar ever since. I was a little worried that it would be flawed in some way by now but I needn't have, it was brilliant, dry, nutty with a delightful maderised brioche flavour that was utterly compelling, a perfect 40 year old!
