Krug is the first and, as yet, only Champagne House to create prestige Champagnes every year since its foundation in 1843.
At the House of Krug, every Krug Vintage celebrates the distinct character of a particular year.
Krug Vintage is not the selection of the best wines of a good year, but the selection of the wines which better express the story of the year. The creation is then enhanced by a stay over ten years in Krug’s cellars.
97 Points Wine Advocate
Krug’s superb 2006 Brut, which will be released this year, numbers among the vintage’s high points, unfurling in the glass with a complex and expressive bouquet of tarte tatin, warm biscuits, ginger, honeycomb, dried white flowers, smoke and toasted nuts. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, broad and textural, with a fleshy attack that reflects the warm vintage but segues into a beautifully vibrant palate that’s deep and surprisingly reserved, displaying superb definition, delicately chalky structure and a long, lively finish. While this is a powerful vintage Krug, it’s also beautifully balanced and will give immense pleasure for decades. Drink 2020-2045.
