Champagne Krug Grande Cuvée NV

Tasting Note

This famous Champagne is blended from up to 50 different wines and from 6 to 10 different years. It has an intense bouquet with full round aromas and a superbly rich flavour of roasted hazelnuts ending on a flowery and fresh note.

Producer Note

Joseph Krug wanted to offer his clients the ultimate pleasure experience in Champagne every year, regardless of the vintage. His philosophy was to select grapes from individual plots which will each express their distinctive features, their nuances and their uniqueness. Krug wines show the character and the contrast between the grapes from different plots. Their Krug Grande Cuvée is the archetype of Krug’s philosophy of craftsmanship. A blend of around 120 wines from ten or more different vintages, some of which may reach 15 years of age. It is this blending so many vintages that gives Krug Grande Cuvée its unique fullness of flavours and aromas, its incredible generosity and its absolute elegance - something impossible to express with the wines of just a single year.

Winemaking

A blend of 120 wines from more than 10 different vintages. Aged in barrels.

Serving Suggestion

Plethora of culinary combinations, from the simplest to the most sophisticated, from an extra mature parmesan to a dish of turbot à la truffe.
