✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 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.
