Tasting note
Rich, floral, outstandingly complex Champagne from a legendary House, with a toasty nose and flavours of fresh lemon.
Viticulture
Krug Grande Cuvée is the archetype of Krug’s philosophy of craftsmanship and savoir faire: a blend of more than 120 wines from ten or more different years.
Vinification
The taste of Krug is greatly enhanced by an exceptionally long period of maturation (6 to 8 years) in the Krug cellars before release. This requires, of course, maintaining a stock covering at least six years of sales, a practice unparalleled in Champagne.
Food Match
Very versatile, can be drunk as an aperitif or with desserts such as: poached pears in phyllo pastry with brandy sabayon or with dishes such as Riesling-poached trout with thyme.
