Producer

The Krug vineyards extend across the finest terroirs of Champagne. The limestone and clay soils, bathed in a temperate climate, promote optimal grape ripeness. Each plot is carefully selected for its potential, allowing the full diversity of the grape varieties to be expressed. The harmony between climate, soil, and human expertise creates wines of great complexity and exceptional aromatic richness.

Owner and history

Today, Krug is part of the LVMH group, but it retains its independence and family spirit. The current owners continue to uphold Joseph Krug's legacy, emphasizing the importance of quality and authenticity. They are committed to preserving traditions while innovating to meet the expectations of wine lovers worldwide.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Krug is a meticulous process, where each step is carried out with care. The grapes are gently pressed and vinified separately according to their origin. Each base wine is then aged in oak barrels, adding another dimension to its aromatic profile. Blending, a true art, allows for the creation of unique cuvées, where the harmony of flavors is paramount. Extended bottle aging on the lees contributes to the complexity and finesse of each cuvée.
