Behind every precious drop of Krug is the dream of a visionary. A man who, long before others, understood that the essence of Champagne is pleasure. More than 170 years ago, Joseph Krug broke existing conventions and followed his own vision. He wanted to make the most refined constant Champagne. Every year, regardless of climatic unpredictability. This daring experiment by Joseph proved to be a victory over himself and that he has succeeded in making Champagne like never before. as never before. To this day, the Huis van Krug has maintained its long-standing philosophy: Creating only prestige champagnes since 1843. It is the only house that has been making exclusively Ultra-Premium Champagnes every year since 1843. An ideal gift. Makes parties and special occasions even more special. It takes more than twenty years to make Krug Grand Cuvée, an assembly of more than 120 wines from at least ten different years. The richest Champagne in the world with exceptional finesse.

Krug Grande Cuvée is dominated by Pinot Noir. That is why this champagne is so full, rich and vinous. The aftertaste is wonderfully long as you would expect with a champagne of this caliber. Not a typical festive champagne, but a wonderfully complex champagne where you have the tendency to close your eyes at every sip to just taste and unravel the formula. In the glass, the wine is light gold with fine, vibrant bubbles that are a harbinger of pleasure. In the nose aromas of blossoming flowers, ripe and dried fruit, marzipan, gingerbread and citrus fruits. On the palate, this wine is extremely complex with, among other flavors, hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar, gelatinized fruit, citrus fruit, almonds, brioche and honey.

DO YOU KNOW:
The Grande Cuvée has no set recipe and can be different every year. That also makes him no ordinary non-vintage champagne. In the quest for more transparency, Krug has had its own app developed and they provide more information than most other houses about their champagne. By scanning the Krug ID on the back of the Krug Grande Cuvée champagne with your smartphone (or entering it manually on the website of the house) you can find all kinds of facts about the champagne that you have in your hands. You can find the date of the dégorgement and how many wines the champagne is made up of.
