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.

The Krug Rosé “20ème Édition” is starting to take full flight, as this marvelous wine from the base year of 2007, has had a chance to stretch out a bit as its structural elements have relaxed and it is now drinking with marvelous generosity. The cépages for this wine is forty-seven percent pinot noir, thirty-seven percent chardonnay and only sixteen percent pinot meunier, with roughly a third of the wines included in its make up being reserve wines. Today the wine is wide open and lovely, offering up a constellation of strawberries, cantaloupe, tangerine, chalky soil tones, plenty of smokiness, cinnamon, cardamom and a beautiful topnote of orange blossoms. On the palate the wine is pure, bright and full-bodied, with a generous personality, exceptional depth at the core, refined mousse and a long, zesty and seamlessly balanced finish of lovely complexity and breed. Great, great juice.
