🏰 The 2013 Krug Vintage Champagne Brut hails from a 【"retro vintage" year, offering exceptional purity and finesse over power】. Despite a challenging growing season with a late harvest, the 2013 vintage in Champagne produced elegant, introverted, and lithe wines, particularly strong for Chardonnay. Expect a Champagne with a healthy backbone of acidity, showcasing a remarkable balance and transparency of expression that is already drinking well and promises further evolution.
🍴 Krug Vintage Champagne Brut is incredibly versatile. It can be enjoyed as an aperitif or paired with a wide range of dishes. Consider delicate seafood, oysters, or even richer poultry dishes with creamy sauces. Its vibrant acidity also makes it a fantastic match for fried foods or aged hard cheeses.
🥂 This is a celebratory Champagne, perfect for marking significant milestones, elegant dinners, or simply elevating any special occasion. Serve well-chilled at 8-10°C (46-50°F) to best appreciate its intricate layers and refreshing character.
BACKGROUND
Krug is one of Champagne's most prestigious houses and its wines are among the most collectible and expensive in Champagne.The house was founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, a native of the Mosel region in Germany, who had moved to France and spent some time working for Jacquesson, the leading Champagne house of the time. Krug's philosophy was that every Champagne should be the best possible expression, and eschewed the common idea of a hierarchy of Champagne. Instead, he began to craft a premium wine from a reserve of wines vinified separately by the growers themselves, a wine that would eventually become the Grande Cuvée.
