Krug Grande Cuvée 161ème Édition

Krug Grande Cuvée 161ème Édition is a remarkable expression of Champagne craftsmanship from one of the region’s most revered houses. Blended from 134 wines spanning 12 different vintages, it showcases Krug’s signature depth, precision, and layered complexity in a way few non-vintage champagnes can match. Built on a philosophy of blending that has defined the house since its founding, it is created to deliver both immediate pleasure and exceptional longevity.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, it typically shows a luminous golden colour with a fine, persistent mousse that signals both richness and finesse. The nose is expansive and elegant, unfolding with notes of ripe orchard fruit, candied citrus, toasted almonds, brioche, honey, spices, and a delicate mineral edge. The palate is full-bodied yet beautifully balanced, with a creamy texture, vibrant freshness, and a long, nuanced finish. Layers of fruit, nuts, pastry, and subtle savoury complexity build steadily, making it a Champagne that feels both generous and refined. Thanks to its structure and depth, Grande Cuvée can continue to evolve gracefully in bottle for many years.

Viininvalmistus
Krug Grande Cuvée 161ème Édition is crafted from a carefully selected blend of 134 reserve wines drawn from 12 vintages, with the oldest from 1990 and the youngest from 2005. The grapes—Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier—are sourced from a range of Champagne vineyards, allowing the house to create a cuvée that balances richness, freshness, and aromatic complexity. Each parcel is vinified separately before blending, and the final wine is assembled to reflect Krug’s pursuit of the fullest expression of Champagne blending artistry.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This Champagne pairs wonderfully with refined dishes such as scallops, lobster, roast chicken, truffle risotto, aged Parmesan, sushi, or light poultry terrines. It also shines alongside nut-based canapés and rich seafood preparations. Serve chilled at around 9–12°C; decanting is not necessary, though a few minutes in the glass can help it open beautifully.
