About
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. Each Edition is a unique blend of many vintages, imparting a fullness of flavors and aromas, incredible generosity, and absolute elegance—something impossible to express with the wines of just a single year. Krug Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition is composed around the harvest of 2013. It is an elegant blend of 146 wines from 11 different years, the youngest from 2013, while the oldest dates back to 2000. Its many layers of aromas and flavors make it a perfect pairing with food. Enjoy it as an aperitif, with Jabugo ham, mature comte cheese, or oysters. It can be also served with dinner, to accompany grilled shrimps, Indian or Moroccan food. With a dessert, it can be savored with carrot cake, tarte tatin and cheesecake.
