From the Producer

Krug Grande Cuvée 170ème Édition was composed around the 2014 harvest and blends 195 wines from 12 different years — the youngest from 2014, the oldest from 1998 — with reserve wines making up 45% of the final blend (51% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay, 11% Meunier). Cellar master Julie Cavil paired dynamic 2014 Pinot Noir from across the region with fruity Chardonnay from the Montagne de Reims, Sézannais and Côte des Blancs, bright Meunier from Leuvrigny, and reserve Pinot Noir from Ambonnay dating to 2005.
