About This Champagne
Krug Rosé 26ème Édition is composed around the 2014 harvest and draws on 28 wines from seven years.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Redcurrant and mulberry, peony and rose hip, with a peppery lift from the red Pinot Noir and a savoury, cured-meat note behind.
- Palate: Chiselled at first, citrus leading, then honey and dried fruit fill in the middle; the bubbles are very fine.
- Finish: Long and dry, with spice and a light grapefruit bitterness at the end.
Serving & Food
Open it about ten minutes before pouring and serve in a tulip or Burgundy glass at 10 to 12°C. Try it with Iberico ham, seared tuna with sesame, or a mild lamb curry, where the spice meets the wine's own.
Good to Know
What's the base year? 2014, making up 67% of the blend.
Does it suit food? Yes. It has structure for a savoury menu.
