KRUG – GRANDE CUVÉE
Champagne, France
From the legendary Champagne house Krug, Grande Cuvée is Krug’s ultimate expression of Champagne—complex, profound, and timeless, recreated every year to reflect the house’s uncompromising vision rather than a single vintage.
Tasting notes
A luminous gold in the glass. The nose is intensely layered, revealing brioche, toasted hazelnut, citrus peel, baked apple, honey, and marzipan, with hints of ginger, spice, and chalky minerality. The palate is rich yet precise, combining depth and power with remarkable freshness. The finish is long, savoury, and endlessly complex.
