Every year since the foundation of the House of Krug, a new Edition of Krug Grande Cuvée is created to offer the most generous expression of Champagne.

THE STORY

Krug Grande Cuvée 169ème Édition was composed around the harvest of 2013, a year that beautifully expressed the unique characters of some of the House’s iconic plots. The season began with a seemingly endless winter followed by a rainy and cool spring. Luckily, summer was hot and sunny, although also marked by hailstorms, which took their toll in the vineyards. The wines of the year were generous, expressive and full of flavors.
