Winery & Vintage Info
Krug Grande Cuvée is at the heart of the House of Krug: it is its raison d’être. Since 1843, Krug Grande Cuvée has embodied the utmost in excellence that Joseph Krug, the founder of the House of Krug, sought to give his clients, a Champagne of extreme generosity and absolute elegance, the very best every year.
Over twenty years are needed to craft each bottle of Krug Grande Cuvée. Blending so many vintages gives Krug Grande Cuvée its unique fullness of flavours and aromas, impossible to express with the wines of just a single year. It is the first prestige cuvée re-created each year, beyond the very notion of vintage. Together with Krug’s other cuvées, it has made Krug the world’s best-rated Champagne for years. Like all Krug Champagnes, it can age beautifully. The ID code, a six- digit number located on the upper left hand side of the back label, can be used as a reference to collect bottles and enjoy them later, more information can be found at the Champagne House website.
Krug Grande Cuvée’s timeless character and unforgettable sensations reconcile the paradoxical - fullness and finesse, maturity and freshness. This is a very generous Champagne - a blend of around 120 wines from ten or more different vintages and three grape varieties. Exceptional finesse, expressed through its subtle bubbles is the result of resting for at least another six years in Krug’s cellars. Winery Notes
