Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is Krug considered the King of Champagne?
- Krug earned its reputation through uncompromising craftsmanship: every plot's wine is fermented separately in small oak barrels, the Tasting Committee appraises around 400 wines each year, and every release blends the same exacting standard regardless of vintage conditions.
- What makes Krug Grande Cuvée unique?
- Grande Cuvée blends roughly 120 wines from up to a dozen different vintages, then rests in Krug's cellars for about seven years — going beyond the idea of a single vintage to capture the most generous expression of Champagne every year.
- Does Krug pair well with Japanese food?
- Yes. Krug's depth, umami-like savoriness, and structured acidity make it an exceptional match for washoku, especially sushi, sashimi, and tempura.
- How should Krug be served?
- Krug is best served in a wide white-wine glass rather than a narrow flute, which lets its complex aromas of brioche, dried fruit, and nuts fully open up.
