Vintage 2002

Krug (hentet 2. nov. 2026): Born from a year with a clement and generous climate, Krug 2002 exhibits superb balance. The expression of an extremely serene and generous year for wines centred around fruit with beautiful structure, great intensity and elegance, Krug 2002 was nicknamed “Ode to Nature” by the Maison’s Tasting Committee. Krug 2002 is an elegant blend of Pinot Noir (40%), Chardonnay (39%) and Meunier (21%). We decided to nickname Krug 2002 the House’s Ode to Nature, for this highly expressive and beautifully structured champagne was born from a serene and generous year. Tasting notes: At first sight a lovely, bright golden colour. A charismatic and fresh nose, with the promise of natural intensity and elegance and a strong presence of fruits of all types. A diverse bouquet of orange aromas with some notes of liquorice and light chocolate biscuit can also be enjoyed. On the palate, this Champagne is astonishing, balanced and delicate with striking fresh, tropical, wild and crystallised fruits. It is a hymn to fruit – red, white and citrus – with notes of blackcurrant, chocolate, candied orange peel, cocoa beans, honey with hints of smoke and toast enhanced by a vibrant, persistent long finish.
