From the Producer

Krug Rosé 24ème Édition was composed around the 2012 harvest and blends 22 wines from 7 different years — the youngest from 2012, the oldest from 2006 — with reserve wines from the Maison's library making up 50% of the final blend (40% Pinot Noir, including 11% traditionally macerated red Pinot Noir, 28% Chardonnay, 32% Meunier). Cellar master Julie Cavil noted that 2012 was the year Clos d'Ambonnay's traditionally macerated Pinot Noir, with its colour, strawberry and pomegranate notes, first auditioned for a place in the blend, giving this Édition its structure and vivacity.
