Krug 170eme

Brand
One plot, one wine, one ingredient. A cornerstone of Krug’s savoir-faire, individuality is the art of understanding that every plot of vines, as one wine, is in itself a single ingredient in Krug Champagnes. Each year, the House of Krug honours this philosophy by paying tribute to a humble single ingredient and inviting Krug Ambassade Chefs around the world to explore the many pleasures it can reveal when paired with a glass of Krug Grande Cuvée or Krug Rosé.

In 2022, the House of Krug celebrates a global symbol of sustenance and vitality, the culinary chameleon we call rice. A unifying staple, the very element that the Ming Dynasty used in the mortar binding the bricks of the Great Wall of China, today nourishes half the world’s population. Versatile and charismatic, it is the backbone of emblematic national recipes everywhere, as comfortable in the spotlight as it is in a supporting role. By nature, an invitation calling for diversity on the plate, rice is a mirror of the human gastronomic adventure throughout the ages. |

“Rice reminds me of traveling – paella in Spain, risotto in Italy, sushi in Japan – an opportunity to discover different cultures through gastronomy. Beneath the surface of an elegant rice dish, there is great skill that you may not see, for example how it is grown or prepared. Depending on the technique and style of the Chef, it will not have the same expression.” Julie Cavil Krug Cellar Master |

Based on the 2013 vintage and complemented by some 40% reserve wines dating back to 2000, Krug's newly released NV Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition is showing very nicely, unfurling in the glass with notes of citrus oil, buttered toast, dried apricot, warm biscuits and marmalade. Medium to full-bodied, deep and...
Compared to Krug's 160th edition, the bright golden-yellow colored NV Grande Cuvée 166ème Édition (ID117010) is still a baby that shows the chalky and fruity features of a young white Burgundy intermixed with notes of Schwarzwälder Kirsch (dark cherries with black chocolate) and floral (ammonia) flavors on the pure, fresh...

The 1988 Krug makes for a fabulous start. Tasted from a perfect bottle, the 1988 remains bright and focused, with all of the energy of this great vintage very much on display. Time has naturally softened some of the contours and added a good bit of nuance, but the 1988...

2004 was a fantastic Chardonnay vintage in Champagne, and there's no more definitive statement of its grace and beauty than this 1.84 ha walled vineyard dating from 1698. The cool winter ceded to gentle mid-summer heat, followed by a prolonged Indian Summer when cooler nights engendered complexity and an almost...

This shows a rich nose featuring deep and ripe chardonnay and pinot noir. Red fruits, some dark mushrooms, plenty of grilled nuts, caramel, some deep spices, dried citrus, lemon peel and bready aromas are all there. The trademark complexity is here, too, and this freshens with air. The palate is...

The 1996 Vintage is magnificent. A towering, explosive Champagne, the 1996 delivers the house’s signature breadth in a full-bodied, structured Champagne with enough pure density and acidity to age well for decades. Warm nutty and spiced overtones add nuance on the finish. The 1996 is just beginning to enter the...
