BACKGROUND
Champagne Krug, founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, is one of the most prestigious houses in Champagne, renowned for its uncompromising quality and unique style. The 'Grande Cuvée' is the ultimate expression of the house's philosophy, recreated every year by blending over 120 different wines from more than 10 different years. Edition 169 is based on the 2013 vintage, blended with reserve wines dating back to 2000. Fermented in small oak barrels and aged extensively on its lees, it offers unparalleled complexity, richness, and elegance, with notes of toasted brioche, citrus, honey, and profound minerality.
