Krug Grande Cuvée is Krug’s flagship non-vintage prestige champagne, a meticulously crafted multi-vintage blend drawn from a broad array of base wines across Champagne. Predominantly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir (with Pinot Meunier) are united to deliver depth, balance, and longevity. The house’s signature extended aging and precise dosage yield a generously layered, age-worthy Champagne with a creamy mousse and refined finish. Aromas of brioche, almond, citrus zest, and white fruit unfold into a palate of pear, lemon, white peach, and toasted notes, finishing with mineral lift. A versatile choice for celebrations or elevated pairings with seafood, roasted poultry, risotto, or aged cheeses.
