Champagne Krug Brut Rosé 27th Edition

Behind every precious drop of Krug lies the dream of a visionary. A man who understood long before others that the essence of champagne is pleasure. More than 170 years ago, Joseph Krug broke with existing conventions and followed his own vision. He wanted to make the most refined constant champagne. Every year, regardless of the unpredictability of the climate. This daring experiment by Joseph turned out to be a victory over himself and he succeeded in making champagne like never before. To this day, the House of Krug exudes its sustainable philosophy: creating only prestige champagnes since 1843. It is the only house that has exclusively created Ultra-Premium Champagnes every year since 1843. An ideal gift.

Krug Rosé 27ème Édition is a blend of 38 wines from 9 different years, the youngest of which is from 2015, while the oldest dates from 2005. It was supplemented with 10% traditionally macerated Pinot Noir of the year, blended from plots in Aÿ and Mareuil -sur-Aÿ, to add a unique spiciness, color and structure. A stay of approximately seven years in Krug's cellars gives Krug Rosé 27ème Édition its unique expression and elegance. The final composition of this edition of Krug Rosé is 57% Pinot Noir, 23% Chardonnay and 20% Meunier.

Winemakers Tasting Note: "At first sight, its subtle pale pink color holds a promise of elegance. On the nose, aromas of rose hips, cured ham, mulberries, redcurrant, peony, pepper and pink grapefruit. On the palate, delicate flavors of honey, citrus and dried fruit with a long finish, enhanced by its fine bubbles complete the experience."
