✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The 29ème Édition of Krug Rosé represents the 29th recreation of this legendary, gastronomy-focused Champagne. Born from the fifth generation of the Krug family—specifically Henri and Rémi Krug, who secretly experimented to create a dry, structured rosé that defied the sweet, simple styles of the 1980s—this cuvée is a masterclass in blending. Built around the 2017 harvest and enriched by reserve wines spanning nearly a decade, it features a classic Champagne blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier. The signature complexity and delicate pink hue are achieved by incorporating a specially macerated Pinot Noir red wine, sourced from prestigious plots like Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. Fermented in traditional small oak casks, it offers an incredibly expressive bouquet of wild berries, puff pastry, and subtle spices, underpinned by Krug's hallmark tension and mineral 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.
