✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Krug Les Cr ations Assortment Case is a highly curated, limited-edition release designed to showcase the dual nature of the House of Krug's winemaking philosophy. It pairs a bottle of Krug Vintage with a bottle of Krug Grande Cuv e created around the same base year harvest. This unique presentation allows connoisseurs to experience how a single year's climate and grapes are interpreted in two distinct ways: as a singular, historic snapshot (the Vintage) and as the ultimate, multi-vintage symphony of generosity (the Grande Cuv e). Both Champagnes are crafted using Krug's traditional methods, including primary fermentation in small oak casks and extensive cellar aging, resulting in wines of breathtaking complexity, tension, and depth.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Maison Krug was established in Reims in 1843 by visionary merchant Joseph Krug, who sought to craft the most generous expression of Champagne annually, regardless of climatic variations. Situated in the heart of Champagne, the maison draws fruit from premier and grand cru parcels spanning the limestone-rich terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, Côte des Blancs, and Vallée de la Marne, supplemented by historic walled monopoles like Clos du Mesnil and Clos d'Ambonnay. Viticulture is conducted under rigorous sustainable standards, eschewing herbicides and synthetic insecticides while adhering to Viticulture Durable en Champagne (VDC) frameworks. Krug's foundational cellar philosophy centers on plot-by-plot vinification, fermenting base wines primarily in aged 205-liter oak barrels. Under Chef de Cave Julie Cavil, hundreds of distinct still wines and an extensive library of reserve vintages are systematically evaluated. The house's signature benchmark, Krug Grande Cuvée—each release cataloged by its specific Édition—stands alongside Krug Rosé, Krug Vintage, and single-vineyard masterpieces as archetypes of profound vinous depth, racy minerality, and monumental longevity.
