Description
Krug Grande Cuvée 172ème Édition is a benchmark prestige Champagne, crafted to deliver the depth, complexity, and consistency that define the House of Krug. Presented in its elegant gift box, it brings together a remarkable blend of reserve wines to create a Champagne that is both immediately expressive and built for long-term enjoyment.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a fine, persistent mousse and a luminous golden hue. The nose is layered and refined, with notes of citrus peel, almond, hazelnut, brioche, dried flowers, and baked pastry, unfolding with impressive precision.
On the palate, it is rich yet impeccably balanced, combining freshness with remarkable texture. Flavours of ripe orchard fruit, honeyed citrus, toast, and subtle spice linger on a long, mineral finish. As with all great Krug releases, it has the structure and concentration to age gracefully for many years, gaining even more complexity over time.
Production
Krug Grande Cuvée is created from an assemblage of numerous wines from different years, sourced to capture the fullest expression of the House style rather than a single vintage. Grapes are selected from top Champagne terroirs, and the final blend is composed with extraordinary precision, then aged extensively in Krug’s cellars to develop depth, harmony, and finesse.
Food & Serving
This Champagne is superb with refined dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast poultry, truffle risotto, or aged Parmesan. It is also elegant on its own as an aperitif. Serve chilled at 8–10°C; decanting is not recommended, though a few minutes in the glass will allow its complexity to open beautifully.
Producer
Founded in 1843, Krug is one of Champagne’s most prestigious houses and remains synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous blending. Based in Reims, the House is celebrated for its philosophy of creating multi-vintage Champagnes of extraordinary complexity, with Grande Cuvée standing as its most iconic expression and a reference point for luxury Champagne worldwide.
