Krug Grande Cuvée is born from the dream of one man, Joseph Krug, to offer the very best Champagne every year, regardless of annual variations in climate. Since 1843, the House of Krug has honoured this vision with each new Édition of Krug Grande Cuvée: the fullest expression of Champagne.

TASTING NOTES
Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition has a light golden colour and fine, vivacious bubbles, holding a promise of pleasure. Aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe, dried and citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread. Flavours of hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar, jellied and citrus fruits, almonds, brioche and honey. It can be enjoyed as an aperitif or served to accompany oysters, grilled shrimps, Indian or Moroccan food, as well as desserts such as carrot cake, tarte tatin and cheesecake.

THE TECHNICAL PART
It is a blend of 127 wines from 11 different years, the youngest of which is from 2008, while the oldest dates back to 1990.
Its final composition is 48% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 17% Meunier.
A stay of around seven years in Krug’s cellars gives Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition its distinct expression and elegance.

Product Reviews

Critics Review

Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition was composed around the harvest of 2008, a year of extremes that defied all predictions.
The challenge was to look with fresh eyes at what each individual plots of vines could give. The early harvest revealed grapes with powerful aromas and discreet flavours. Lesser-known plots proved to be the foremost contributors to this singular creation.
In all, reserve wines from the House’s extensive library made up 32% of the final blend, bringing the breadth and roundness so essential to each Édition of Krug Grande Cuvée.
Krug Grande Cuvée is the first and unique Prestige Champagne re-created every year, beyond the notion of vintage.
The art of blending wines from so many different years gives Krug Grande Cuvée its unique fullness of flavours and aromas, impossible to express with the wines of just a single year.
The Édition number corresponds to the number of times in the House of Krug the founder’s dream has been re-created. It also serves as a reference for collectors, to enjoy it later.
The full story of every Édition is revealed online via its Krug iD, the six digits on the back label.
Krug Grande Cuvée, like all Krug Champagnes, will continue to gain with the passage of time.
