Description
Krug Grande Cuvée is the timelessly stylish signature of Krug.
Krug Grande Cuvée is the supreme demonstration of the Krug art of blending: this champagne is recreated every year from as many as fifty wines.
These wines are from three grape varieties, twenty to twenty-five growths, and six to ten different years. Thus, each bottle is a master-piece, and is one of the most sophisticated and renowned champagne of the world.
It is light, ancient-gold in color with a creamy texture, and a mousse of intense activity. The bouquet is highly expressive, with lovely nutty characters, almonds, toasted bread, complemented by notes of candied fruits and spices.
It leads to a long, lingering finish, with a delicate vinosity.
A breathtaking champagne, a sensational taste experience.
Presentation of Julie Cavil, oenologist at Krug
Its mosaic of aromas has made Krug Grande Cuvée the richest of cuvées.
Its generosity guarantees that everyone will find something to awaken their senses: it has a story to tell everyone.
We might compare the making of a Krug Grande Cuvée to that of a traditional French dish: ratatouille. This may seem a surprising parallel, but there are two ways to prepare ratatouille.
Either you throw all the ingredients simultaneously into a casserole dish and, in 20 minutes, your ratatouille is ready.
Or you decide to respect and preserve the taste of each vegetable by cooking them separately and only bringing them together at the end of cooking, then leaving them to blend harmoniously for a while. This brings out the best in each ingredient and produces a sublime dish.
The second method may be more laborious, but the dish gains in color, aroma and texture. At Krug, our aim is to get the best out of each parcel, to give it time to express the full potential of its grapes, and only then to proceed with the blending.
In the tasting room, we taste the result to confirm that we've used the right plot, in the right place.
