Characteristics and Tasting Notes of Krug Rosé 24th Edition
Tasting
Appearance
The appearance captivates with its intensity.
Nose
The nose reveals fragrances of strawberry and pomegranate.
Palate
Combining structure and liveliness, the palate is supported by a delicate balance between freshness and harmony, granted by the quality of the reserve wines, notably 2006 and 2008.
A rich and ideally balanced rosé champagne
The estate
Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug in Reims, the Champagne Krug House is a pillar of excellence in Champagne. With vineyards spread across several regions of Champagne, it stands out for its library of reserve wines, enabling the creation of champagnes with consistent quality. Now led by Olivier Krug, the house remains true to the innovative spirit of its founder.
The vineyard
With more than 250 different plots including the prestigious Clos du Mesnil and Clos d’Ambonnay, the Krug House holds an exceptional vineyard heritage in Champagne.
The wine
Born from the imagination of the fifth generation of the Krug family, this unique rosé champagne follows the same philosophy as Krug Grande Cuvée, also transcending the very notion of vintage. Each edition perpetuates this tradition of excellence. The 24th Edition of Krug Rosé is structured around the 2012 harvest. It is composed of 22 wines from 7 different years, the oldest dating from 2006 and the youngest from 2012.
The vintage
Frost, rain, storms, and hail indeed hit the Champagne vineyards during the winter and spring, before an exceptionally dry ripening period (unseen since 1974), resulting in a 20% decrease in the harvest.
Winemaking and aging
This exceptional cuvée is aged for about 7 years in the estate's cellars.
Blend
40% pinot noir (including 11% traditionally macerated red pinot noir on their skins), 28% chardonnay, and 32% pinot meunier.
