The creation of Krug Rosé was inspired by the fifth generation of the Krug family, who sought to craft a rosé Champagne that did not yet exist—one that could be recreated every year with unparalleled character and complexity. The 27ème Édition is a masterful blend of 38 wines from 9 different years, with the youngest from the 2015 harvest and the oldest dating back to 2005. This multi-vintage cuvée combines Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier, and is completed with a meticulously selected traditionally macerated Pinot Noir red wine from the grand cru plots of Aÿ and Taissy to impart its delicate pink hue, structure, and spicy depth. Fermented in traditional small oak casks and aged for seven years in the historic Reims cellars, this Champagne delivers an exquisite harmony of wild berries, puff pastry, and subtle floral notes.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Founded in Reims in 1843 by Joseph Krug, the House of Krug has established itself as one of Champagne's most legendary and uncompromising names. Operating from its historic cellars at 5 Rue Coquebert, the house is celebrated for its traditional production methods, notably fermenting all its base wines in small oak casks and maintaining an unparalleled library of reserve wines to achieve extraordinary complexity. This meticulous approach yields deeply structured, age-worthy sparkling wines, ranging from the iconic multi-vintage Grande Cuvée to rare, single-vineyard masterpieces like Clos d'Ambonnay, a highly coveted Blanc de Noirs sourced from a tiny walled plot in the heart of Ambonnay.
