The Gran Cuvée Brut 169ème Edition Krug represents the most refined expression of the Champagne tradition, born in the heart of the historic Champagne region in France. This complex blend expertly highlights various vintages and grape varieties, mainly Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, selected to impart balance and depth to the wine.
It is the result of patient aging that gives it a rich and enveloping character, with bottle maturation that enhances creaminess and persistence. In the glass, it presents a fine and lively perlage, accompanied by aromas of ripe fruit, toasted yeast, hazelnut, and hints of sweet spices that intertwine in an elegant and complex bouquet.
On the palate, it is silky, with a perfect balance between freshness and structure, ideal to accompany delicate flavors such as shellfish, foie gras, or fish-based dishes. A sensory experience that pays tribute to the art of the Maison Krug.
