Krug Grande Cuvee Champagne bottle presented with a rare and exclusive butler service ice bucket. A beautiful and unique work of art designed specifically to hold a bottle of Krug Grande Cuvée while keeping it perfectly chilled. A gleaming gold colour, an extravagantly expansive bouquet, Krug Grande Cuvée has an almost creamy texture. Then experience an explosion of flavours, at once mellow and mature, crisp and clean. Toast, soft spices, dried and candied fruit. The timelessly stylish signature of Krug, it's a breathtaking champagne that effortlessly balances richness and freshness, power and finesse. Out of contrast, harmony - a sensational taste experience. A supreme demonstration of the Krug art of blending. No recipe can define its intricate harmony, so every year the Krug family works from taste and memory alone to recreate this most complex of champagnes. Typically blended from as many as 50 wines from three grape varieties, 20 to 25 growths, and six to ten different years. Krug Grande Cuvée is the ultimate expression of the Krug style. So much so that all other Krugs may be said to have something of the Grande Cuvée in them. Krug Rosé for example takes the spicy notes of the Grande Cuvée to a new peak, while Krug Clos du Mesnil is more mineral. According to Rémi Krug: "If Johann-Joseph Krug tasted today’s Grande Cuvée, he would no doubt say that it was exactly what he dreamt of when he founded Krug in 1843". |
