KRUG VINTAGE 2006

Krug Vintage 2006 – Champagne
by Krug

A beautifully expressive and generous vintage from Krug, Krug Vintage 2006 reflects a warm, sun-kissed growing season balanced by Krug’s trademark precision and structure. This is a Champagne of breadth and charm, offering immediate appeal while retaining the depth and complexity to evolve gracefully over time.

Vintage Character & Philosophy

Krug produces a Vintage Champagne only in years that allow a distinctive expression of the season. The 2006 vintage is defined by ripe fruit, roundness, and approachability, complemented by Krug’s extended cellar ageing, which brings harmony and layered complexity.

This is a Vintage Champagne that marries generosity with finesse.

Ripe orchard fruit, baked apple, pear, toasted brioche, hazelnut, honey, gentle spice

Palate
Rich and expansive — stone fruit, citrus peel, pastry cream, roasted nuts, subtle minerality, and a creamy, refined mousse

Finish
Long, rounded, and elegant with lingering warmth, freshness, and pastry notes

In Summary

Krug Vintage 2006 is a Champagne of warmth, harmony, and depth — offering ripe fruit generosity wrapped in Krug’s unmistakable elegance. It is an outstanding choice for those seeking a prestige Champagne that is both luxurious and immediately rewarding, yet capable of continued evolution.
