Krug Rosé

Absolute elegance

Krug Rosé is everywhere we don’t expect it to be, in terms of texture, colour and taste. It is a remarkable Champagne which encapsulates the same creative spirit of Krug Grande Cuvée, again surpassing the very notion of vintage.

Chef de Caves, Krug

This half bottle has spent over seven years ageing in the Krug cellars gaining finesse and elegance. It received its cork in the summer of 2015.

This bottle of Krug Rosé is the result of the blending of a rich palette of wines from three grape varieties and four different years, the youngest wine dating back from 2008 and the oldest from 2005. A very expressive skin-fermented Pinot Noir (10%) wine of the year is added to the blend, which provides unparalleled wild red fruit, richness, structure, colour and spiciness to the Champagne.

The year 2008 was a classical year in Champagne contributing to the blend with 34% of the wines. Powerful reserve wines (66%) added depth, intensity and expression to it. The final composition of this Krug Rosé creation is 51% Pinot Noir (including the red wine), 41% Chardonnay and 8% Meunier. Krug Rosé is an unprecedented Champagne, created every year beyond the very notion of vintage and to be the very best Rosé Champagne the House can offer.

Thanks to its very subtle bubbles, long-finish, impressive silky texture, beautiful breath and distinctive elegance, Krug Rosé is a fantastic alternative to replace a red wine at the table. Krug Rosé is recommended to accompany very tasty, savoury food like anchovies, lamb, pork chops or a juicy hamburger.

Krug Rosé is decidedly the most non-conformist of Krug Champagnes. It is an unexpected delight, surprising at every sip with its aromas, texture, colour and taste.

Tasting notes

Krug Rosé is both unexpected and daring. It shows a broad and extensive aromatic palette, unusual for a Rosé Champagne.
As you taste Krug Rosé, you will discover harmonies of puff pastry and red-berry tart, which develop towards honey and citrus fruits.
Its floral accents and notes of dried or stewed fruit will enthral your palate. Its extreme delicacy is enhanced by the subtlety of its fine and elegant bubbles.

Storing & serving

The richness of your Krug Champagne is fully revealed between 9°C and 12°C (49°F - 54°F). Serving your bottle too cold would refrain the aromas’expression.
Krug has created The Joseph, a unique crystal glass whose shape enables the bubbles to reach their optimal expression and allows the discovery of the incredible bouquet of aromas.
If you do not have The Joseph glass, you may prefer a white Burgundy glass to a flute, to enable the expression of Krug Champagne’s flavors and aromas.
As a Prestige Cuvée, Krug Champagnes age beautifully, the time revealing their richness and elegance.
Your Champagne should be stored in a wine cellar, or in a cool (between 10 to 15 °C - 50 to 59 °F) dry and away from light place, the exact conditions of Krug cellars.

Food pairing

Beautifully cooked spices are a delicious adventure
into depth and strength, Krug Rose amplifies their flavours
while then contrasting with a delightful freshness.
Krug Rosé should be enjoyed alone or with foie gras,
lamb, game, white meat, venison or anchovies,
as well as very savoury and spicy dishes.

"The silky texture of this vivid rosé Champagne draped the palate, offering an aromatic panoply of flavors, from pure raspberry and white peach fruit to ground cumin and anise, violet, graphite, spun honey and toasted almond. Delivers a long, mouthwatering finish." – AN

Wine Spectator 2015

Note: 95/100

A rosé which never plays with a flattering and primary character but enhances the depth and the finesse of a Grand Cru, with an infinite persistence.

My favourite is Krug Rosé, the most daring, non-conformist of Krug Champagnes. It was a complete surprise to me that a Rosé could ever equal the richness and complexity of a red wine.

Musically the Krug Rosé makes me think of Bella Bartok’s 2d violin concerto, a very demanding, virtuoso piece. Full and opulent, just like Krug Rosé.
