By Krug
Krug Grande Cuvée started with Joseph Krug, with the goal of creating the very best Champagne he could offer, every single year, starting in 1843. This is the 169th edition of the Grande Cuvée. It is a blend of 146 wines from 11 different years, the youngest of which is from 2013, while the oldest dates back to 2000. It’s final composition is 43% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 22% Meunier. A stay of around seven years in Krug’s cellars gives Krug Grande Cuvée 169th Edition its distinct expression and elegance. A light golden color and fine, vivacious bubbles, this Champagne has aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe, dried and citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread. On the palate: hints of almond paste, quince, lemon, limoncello and dried fruit
