Krug Grande Cuvée
28th April 2015
Krug Grande Cuvée is at the heart of the House of Krug. 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.
Tasting Notes:
Deep golden colour and fine, vivacious bubbles, predicting fullness and elegance. Aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe & dried fruit, marzipan, gingerbread and citrus fruits. Flavours of hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar, jellied and citrus fruits, almonds, brioche and honey.
Krug Grande Cuvée lends itself to a plethora of culinary combinations, from the simplest to the most sophisticated, from an extra mature parmesan to a dish of turbot à la truffe.
What makes it unique?
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 cuvee 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.
