Champagne Krug Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition Brut NV
Vintage Character
Champagne Krug Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition Brut is a benchmark of multi-vintage Champagne, expertly assembled from a blend of more than 120 individual wines spanning over a decade of harvests, with the base vintage being 2013. The 2013 growing season in Champagne was marked by cool temperatures and a late harvest, contributing finesse, freshness, and aromatic clarity to the blend.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
This edition was awarded 94 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, underscoring its exceptional quality. The nose opens with layers of toasted brioche, hazelnut, citrus zest, and honeyed apple, complemented by subtle floral and mineral undertones. On the palate, it delivers vibrancy and creaminess, unfolding notes of marzipan, candied ginger, orchard fruit, and almond, all supported by a fine, persistent mousse and a lingering saline finish. Its harmonious balance and expressive depth make it a superb match for refined Western cuisine—try it with lobster thermidor, seared scallops in beurre blanc, or a delicate Comté cheese to accentuate its complexity and finesse.
Winery Background
Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, the house of Krug is revered for its unwavering commitment to quality and its pioneering approach to prestige multi-vintage Champagne. Krug vinifies each vineyard plot separately in small oak barrels, allowing the unique character of each cru to shine through in the final blend. The Grande Cuvée is the flagship expression of the house, showcasing meticulous blending and extended aging on lees to achieve remarkable depth, nuance, and longevity. Every bottle reflects the diversity of Champagne’s terroirs and Krug’s dedication to craftsmanship, making it a true icon among Champagne producers.
