A vintage Champagne imbued with complexity and elegance
The estate
Since 1843, the Champagne Krug House has honored the dream of its founder, Joseph Krug, by creating each year a new Edition of Krug Grande Cuvée, the most generous expression of Champagne, regardless of annual climatic variations.
The House considers that each Krug Vintage expresses the unique character of a particular year. A Krug Vintage brings together the most expressive wines from the same year, enhanced by over ten years of aging in the cellar. Each Krug Vintage is different: it is the Music of the Year, transposed into the Krug universe.
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 vintage
A true tour de force, this 2000 vintage Champagne is at once generous, precise and deep, nicknamed Tempestuous Indulgence. The year 2000 ranks among the warmest years in which Krug has created vintages, all of which have proven to be the source of excellent Champagnes (1947, 1959, 1976, 1982, 1989).

Tasting characteristics and recommendations for Krug 2020
Tasting
This Champagne with its intense color invites an exquisitely refined tasting. Caramel, nougat, hazelnut, and freshly baked pastries mingle with notes of citrus gratin and fruit, as well as lime zest, leading to a particularly lingering finish.
