Press Release Bumff:
Krug Grande Cuvée
“Multi-vintage”. A stunning mosaic of flavours in which a blend of up to 50 different wines from 6-10 different years combine to give Krug Grande Cuvée its complexity, elegance and consistency, year after year.
Grapes
Three grape varieties contribute to the complexity of the blend: Pinot Noir for fullness and ability to age beautifully, Meunier for fruitiness and bouquet and Chardonnay for finesse and elegance. There is no formula or recipe for Krug Grande Cuvée. Each year the Krug winemaking team meets to recreate the complexity, balance, elegance and consistency that makes the Krug Grande Cuvée. This is done with careful attention to the most minute detail, so that six years later it is in ready to be disgorged and released. Made from a blend of up to 50 reserve wines of 20 to 25 different crus and 6 to 10 different years combine to create the complexity of this wine.
