Grande Cuvée 171ème Édition NV (flere årgange)

Krug (hentet 2. nov. 2026): Composed around the harvest of 2015, Krug Grande Cuvée 171 ème Édition is a blend of 131 wines from 12 different years. The youngest is from the year 2015 and the oldest dates back to 2000. In all, reserve wines from the House’s extensive library made up 42% of the final blend, bringing the breadth and roundness so essential to each Édition of Krug Grande Cuvée. The final composition of this champagne is 45% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 18% Meunier. In all, over 20 years of careful craftsmanship were necessary to enjoy Krug Grande Cuvée 171 ème Édition. The Chardonnays and Meuniers of 2015 showed a bit of restraint, so we looked to fresher years from our reserve wine library, including the harvests of 2008, 2013 and even 2014 to bring vivacity and tension to the blend. In this Édition of Krug Grande Cuvée, you will also find Chardonnays from warmer and more capricious years such as 2000 and 2006 that add patina and a toasty quality. The exceptional Pinot Noirs of 2015 were complemented by around 30 other expressions to bring generosity, spice and structure. Finally, Meuniers were selected from 4 harvest years to add an assertive quality and diversity to the final blend. Tasting notes: A light golden colour and fine, vivacious bubbles, holding a promise of pleasure. Aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe, dried and citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread. Grilled notes and flavours of almond paste, quince, lemon, limoncello and dried fruit.
