✨ Technical Specifications
Krug Rosé 25ème Édition represents the continuation of a daring family legacy. Originally conceived in secret by the fifth generation of the house, Henri and Rémi Krug, who sought to challenge the conventions of traditional rosé Champagne, this cuvée is a masterclass in blending. Built around the 2013 harvest, the 25ème Édition is an artful composition of 28 reserve wines spanning five distinct years, from 2008 to 2013. The blend features Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier, enriched with 11% traditionally macerated Pinot Noir from Aÿ to impart its signature pale pink hue, structure, and spicy complexity. Fermented in Krug's historic small oak casks and aged for seven years in the cellars, it delivers an incredibly expressive profile of red berries, puff pastry, and citrus, embodying the house's uncompromising pursuit of individuality.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug in Reims, the House of Krug is one of the most revered and uncompromising prestige Champagne producers in the world. Driven by its founder's pioneering philosophy to craft the absolute fullest expression of Champagne each year regardless of climatic variations, the house treats each vineyard plot as an individual element in its masterful blending process. Krug vinifies its base wines in traditional small oak barrels and relies on an extensive library of reserve wines spanning more than a dozen distinct vintages. The resulting portfolio is legendary for its richness, complexity, and extraordinary aging potential, highlighted by the flagship Krug Grande Cuvée, prestigious vintage bottlings, and rare single-vineyard masterpieces such as Clos du Mesnil and Clos d'Ambonnay.
