Description

Unusually among Champagne houses, Krug regard their non-vintage Grand Cuvée as their top wine, incorporating the best wines available to maintain the unique house style. Fermented in old Argonne oak barriques (unusually for Champagne) and aged for longer than many houses' vintage wines, the style is rich, with noticeable autolytic, yeast aromas, nuts, dried fruits and toast, yet with great finesse and complexity. Almost certainly the finest non-vintage sparkling wine in the world.

    A lot going on in the glass

    What can I say about this massive Champagne, this massive brand? First, I wouldn't buy it myself; but if someone buys it for me I'd be a very, very happy man. Rich, low level of bubbles, complex flavour. The lady i drank a bottle with said "There's a lot going on in that glass" and then declared she didn't especially like it. I loved it but can you spend £110 in a better way? Of course you can. One to try if the opportunity presents itself but don't expect it to be five times better than a decent but standard bottle of Champagne.
