Krug, Champagne, Grande Cuvee 173eme Edition - Gift Box

The House of Krug was established in 1843 in Reims, France, by Joseph Krug, who founded the estate on the principle of producing the most generous expression of the region every year regardless of annual climate shifts. This 173eme Edition is a blend of 150 different wines made from Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier, drawn from 13 vintages dating back to 2001. In the glass, it displays an intense yellow gold color with aromas of toasted brioche, stone fruit, and vanilla pastry cream. The texture is creamy and unctuous, offering layered flavors of peach, ripe citrus, and pine nuts, all carried by a crisp, persistent lemon finish. Whether enjoyed tonight or held in a cellar to gain further complexity over the coming years, this wine offers a reliable and deep drinking experience.
