Krug Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition Champagne 375ml is a refined expression of the House of Krug's philosophy of creating Champagne beyond the limitations of a single vintage. The 169ème Édition is composed from wines across different years, carefully blended to achieve the House's signature richness, complexity and balance.
Krug Grande Cuvée is renowned for its multi-vintage approach, combining wines from different harvests with a significant proportion of reserve wines. This allows Krug to recreate a consistent house style characterised by breadth, depth and remarkable aromatic complexity.
The 169ème Édition is based around the 2013 harvest, complemented by reserve wines from previous years. The blend brings together the three traditional Champagne varieties — Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier — before extended ageing in Krug's cellars.
The result is an elegant yet generous Champagne with layers of citrus, ripe fruit, dried fruit, brioche, almond, hazelnut and subtle spice, supported by fine bubbles and a long, precise finish.
Tasting Notes
Colour:
Golden yellow with bright, luminous reflections and a fine, persistent stream of bubbles.
Nose:
Complex and expressive with aromas of citrus fruits, lemon, orange blossom and ripe orchard fruit, layered with brioche, freshly baked bread, almond, hazelnut and subtle spice.
Palate:
Rich and beautifully textured with flavours of citrus, ripe apple, pear and stone fruit. Fine mousse and vibrant acidity provide freshness, while notes of brioche, almond, hazelnut and pastry add depth and complexity.
Finish:
Long, elegant and exceptionally persistent with lingering citrus, dried fruit, toasted nuts, brioche and delicate spice.
