Krug 2006 750mL

Krug 2006 is a prestige vintage Champagne shaped by a warm, highly variable growing year and given more than a decade in Krug's cellars. It offers a richer, more enveloping profile than many tauter Champagne vintages, while keeping the house's precision and depth.

From the Producer

Maison Krug was founded by Joseph Krug in 1843 in Reims, driven by his ambition to craft the very best Champagne he could offer every year, regardless of climate variation. Krug states that every Krug Vintage "celebrates the distinct character of a particular year" through a blend of its most expressive wines, enhanced by a stay of over ten years in the house's cellars before release — the maturation Krug 2006 carries through to bottle.

Tasting Profile

• Nose: Yellow fruit, dried fruit, toasted nuts, pastry notes and citrus lift.
• Palate: Generous and layered, with nougat, frangipane, tarte tatin tones, citrus and creamy mousse.
• Finish: Long and expressive, with warmth, freshness and a persistent grapefruit-toned edge.

Best For

Excellent for prestige Champagne lovers, formal dinners and gifting where a named Krug vintage carries real weight.
