Krug Grande Cuvée 170th Edition Champagne 75cl Gift Box

Rating:
100% of 100

Krug Grande Cuvée Brut 170th Edition is a blend of 195 wines from 12 different vintage years. The intense flavours and aromas of Krug Grande Cuvée Champagne would be impossible to express in the wines of just a single year. The youngest year used to create the 170th edition is 2014 with the oldest dating back to 1998. 

This Champagne, as with all Krug editions, will continue to gain excellence with time. This edition has already spent seven years in Krug cellars and the composition of 51% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay and 11% Meunier gives this wine its distinct expression and elegance. Krug Grande Cuvée 170th Edition was composed around the 2014 vintage, and the final blend includes 45% of reserve wines from the House's extensive collection. This ensures this new edition offers the breadth, depth, and complexity for which Krug is renowned.

Composed around the harvest of 2014 which included hot dry spells and cool rainy periods. The contrasting weather preserved great freshness which shows through in the final blend.
Floral aromas on the nose complemented by ripe, dried and citrus fruits alongside marzipan and hints of gingerbread. The palate is full-bodied with grilled notes, dried fruits, quince, lemon and toasted almonds.
This edition of Krug pairs well with an amalgamation of culinary delights such as turbot à la truff, mature comté cheese, oysters, grilled shrimp, carrot cake and cheesecake. This champagne can also be truly enjoyed and savoured on its own as an aperitif.

Each bottle of Krug Grande Cuvée NV has a Krug ID code on the back label which enables you to discover the story of that very bottle. Full details of all the grapes used in this Edition can be discovered by inputting the Krug ID code into the Krug App.
