Krug

Every year, since the founding of the Maison Krug, a new edition of Grande Cuvée is created to offer the highest expression of excellence of Champagne .

The 167th edition is a cuvée of 191 wines from 13 different vintages, from 1995 to 2011 , to complete which, the Maison has resorted to its wide range of reserve wines, which over 40% of the final assembly .

Chef de Cave Eric Lebel for this cuvée selected wines from Mareuil-sur-Ay , on the Montagne de Reims, for their broad expression of the fruit, to which Pinot Noir from Ambonnay, Ay and Bouzy was added to confer structure. The reserve wines , which bring finesse and mature elegance, come from Verzenay . The fruity Meunier was grown in Sainte-Gemme , while Chardonnay comes from the Côte des Blancs and more precisely from Chouilly and Oger , where this grape variety best expresses its character.
