Krug Rosé 30ème Édition
The story of Krug Rosé dates back to 1976. With Joseph’s non-conformist spirit at heart, the 5th generation of the Krug family crafted a new composition, an unexpected rosé inspired by the Maison’s reputed art of blending.
Thus, the first Édition of Krug Rosé, a singular champagne achieving an astonishing balancing act between finesse and substance, came to be. Each year, Maison Krug presents a new Édition of Krug Rosé.
A masterful blend of white base wines to bestow elegance, fruit notes and great freshness, completed with traditionally macerated Pinot Noir red wines to add structure and spice.
In all, reserve wines from the Maison’s extensive library made up 36% of the final blend of this Édition of Krug Rosé.
The final composition of this Édition of Krug Rosé is 57% Pinot Noir, including 10% traditionally macerated Pinot Noir wines of the final blend, 31% Chardonnay and 12% Meunier.
A word from
The cellar master
This Édition of Krug Rosé, stands out for being particularly powerful and indulgent.

TASTING NOTES
On the nose, a powerful bouquet of wild strawberries, red fruits – both fresh and jammy.
The palate reveals the freshness of blood orange and a firm structure. Explosive and expressive, yet elegant, precise and beautifully balanced.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Krug Rosé best accompanies savoury and flavourful dishes such as game or spicy recipes. It is not recommended with desserts unless they are not sweet at all.
Krug Rosé may be enjoyed with gastronomic dishes such as wild boar tenderloin or charred cauliflower tacos with romesco salsa, as well as simple pleasures like vegetable and jalapeño quiche and grilled sardine.
