Krug Grande Cuvée 173ème Édition

Krug Grande Cuvée 173ème Édition is a superb expression of the House of Krug’s philosophy: crafting the most generous champagne possible, every single year, regardless of vintage conditions. Built around the 2017 harvest and composed from 150 wines across 13 different years, it showcases remarkable depth, precision, and harmony. This non-vintage prestige cuvée is a testament to Krug’s longstanding mastery of blending and aging.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, it shows an intense golden-yellow hue that immediately signals richness and maturity. The nose is layered and inviting, with aromas of brioche, stone fruit, vanilla, and toasted bread, unfolding with impressive complexity. On the palate, it is generous and creamy, delivering notes of peach in syrup, ripe citrus, and pine nuts, balanced by a lively citrus-driven freshness that keeps the wine energized and refined. With its depth, structure, and acidity, it has excellent aging potential and will continue to evolve beautifully over time.

Viininvalmistus
Krug Grande Cuvée 173ème Édition is centered on the 2017 harvest and assembled from 150 base wines spanning vintages from 2001 to 2017. The blend comprises 44% Pinot Noir, 34% Chardonnay, and 22% Meunier, with 31% reserve wines drawn from Krug’s extensive cellar library to add complexity, texture, and structure. After blending, the wine matures for at least seven years in Krug’s cellars before disgorgement, resulting in remarkable finesse and integration. While specific vineyard details are not provided, the final composition reflects the breadth of Champagne’s terroirs through Krug’s meticulous selection process.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This champagne is exceptionally versatile at the table and pairs beautifully with dishes such as lobster, scallops, roast poultry, truffle risotto, mature Comté, or simply fine canapés and salty snacks. Serve chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, to allow its richness and freshness to show in balance. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief period in the glass can help the aromas open further.
