It was Joseph Krug’s personal notebook.The founder of this house wrote down his formative vision on its pages; he wanted to create the best cham- pagne regardless of variations in climate every year. He strived to create an almost unattainable level of quality, one not subject to a hierarchy. No matter whether vintage or not, Krug’s champagne was to be all of the same extraordinary quality, yet tell different stories. Today, it is Olivier Krug who carries on Joseph Krug’s vision. To compose the cuvees with their unrivalled style year after year, Eric Lebel, cellarer of the house, carefully chooses around 250 of the 270,000 wine-growing regions recorded in Champagne. Every single region is a new star, giving Krug Champagne its unique sparkle. Those who experience the five Krug cuvees will be taken on a sensory journey of the taste buds, which reflects Joseph Krug’s adventurous, pioneering spirit;Krug Clos duMesnil, Krug Clos d’Ambonnay, Krug Vintage, Krug Rosé and Krug Grande Cuvée. anzeige
