Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition Giftbox

Presented in a giftbox, Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition is a non-vintage Champagne crafted to express a complexity beyond that of any single year. Based on the celebrated 2008 harvest, it brings together reserve wines dating back to 1990—a reflection of Joseph Krug’s ambition, since the house’s founding in 1843, to create the finest Champagne possible every year.

Tasting Notes
A luminous pale-gold colour and fine, lively bubbles introduce aromas of flowers, ripe and dried citrus, marzipan and gingerbread. The palate is layered with hazelnut, nougat, jelly and citrus, alongside almonds, brioche and honey.

Production
The blend comprises 48% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 17% Pinot Meunier. The 2008 harvest accounts for 62% of the blend, complemented by reserve wines reaching back to 1990. Krug Grande Cuvée spends around seven years ageing in the house’s cellars; the source information does not specify vineyard sites, harvesting methods or vinification details. With a stated ageing potential of 20–25 years, it can be enjoyed now or cellared further.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, with seafood, oysters, roast poultry or dishes with a touch of richness that complement its brioche and nut notes. It can also be enjoyed on its own. Decanting is not essential, but a brief rest in a cool decanter may help reveal its aromatic complexity.

Producer
Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, Champagne Krug is known for Grande Cuvée, a Champagne re-created each year rather than tied to a single vintage. Its numbered editions reflect this ongoing blending tradition, combining wines from multiple harvests to build depth and consistency. The 164ème Édition honours the house’s original vision of making an exceptional Champagne regardless of variations in the year.
