Krug Grand Cuvee

- Henri Krug said, 'Krug Grand Cuvee is as a symphony, a composition where all the instruments play together, complimenting each other in total harmony'.
- The composition of the cuvee is a stunning mosaic of flavours where the three champagne grapes, 20-25 growths and 6-10 different years, combine to give Grand Cuvee its complexity, elegance and consistency year after year, blend after blend.
-
The bouquet is wonderfully creamy, leading to a magical combination of weight and balance on the palate. The long, lingering finish is both nutty and toasty, ending with a final flourish of freshness.

My personal favourite champagne. Has so much more interesting flavours than your standard dry champagnes. Tiny bubbles also makes it easier to enjoy the flavours. Try it if you have never had it!. Beats most vintage champagne hands down.

Krug Gránde Cuvée

Alcohol content: 12%
Prepared Teachers assembly par excellence. Thorough tasting of different vintages, varieties and sources result in a wine of the most special of Champagne. Part of the wine is aged in small oak barrels.
Tasting notes: Surprisingly texture, delicate carbonic tinkling in the mouth tasty memories wrapped in toasted bread crumbs and hazelnuts. Very long.

Krug Grande Cuvée Brut

Its color is bright gold, very expressive. It has a special bouquet, full of spices, giving it a very special aroma (in part due to his long stay in barrels) in the mouth texture is almost creamy, with an explosion of flavors soft and ripe, fresh and clean that resemble to nuts and candied fruit.

I bought it at a wine tasting stand.
Typical opacity of a Krug. Its aromas reminded me of yeast. A very well balanced Champagne.

Krug Champagne Krug Grand Cuvée

I took 2 bottles of Krug Champagne Krug Grand Cuvée with a former partner.
Deep colour at first sight. Very yeasty and biscuity on the nose. I like the slight roughness it leaves you on the mouth.
I enjoyed it without pairing.
