KRUG GRANDE CUVéE MAGNUM GIFT BOX:
150 cl
The flagship of the house, Grande Cuvée is imposing in character
from the first moment in the glass. The "birth" of Krug Grande Cuvée, through its first fermentation
exclusively in small oak casks, ensures the unique personality and dimension that is the Krug Style.
The composition of the "Grande Cuvée" is a stunning mosaic of flavors where the three champagne grapes,
20-25 growths and 6-10 different years, combine to give Krug Grande Cuvée its complexity, elegance
and consistency year after year, blend after blend.
To maintain this consistency, Krug reserves a large selection of unblended still wines from previous vintages
blending them with the youngest crop to create a fully balanced taste. These "reserve" wines may
represent between a third and a half of the cuvée. The bouquet is wonderfully creamy, leading
to magical combination of weight and balance on the palate. The long, lingering finish is both nutty and toasty,
ending with a final flourish of freshness, leaving one longing for more.
