Product details
Since its founding in Reims in 1843 by Joseph Krug, Maison Krug has embodied a philosophy of craftsmanship, individuality, and patience, unwaveringly dedicated to producing only the finest Champagne every year. Today part of LVMH but still guided by the Krug family and cellarmaster Julie Cavil, each edition—including the prestigious Brut Rosé—is born from an exquisite blend of individual plot wines and a rich reserve library, often tucked away for years on yeast lees. The Brut Rosé is a gastronomic marvel: a non‑vintage cuvée comprising three classic Champagne varieties—Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Meunier—along with a touch of skin‑fermented Pinot Noir for its striking pink hue and extra depth. Aged a minimum of five years, this masterpiece exemplifies the Krug way—an astonishing balance between finesse and substance.
On the nose, expect enchanting aromas of red berries—raspberry, strawberry, redcurrant—interwoven with delicate rose petals, citrus blossom, and subtle brioche. The palate is equally layered: vivid juicy fruits meet creamy texture and fine, persistent mousse, evolving through notes of almond, honey, citrus peel, and a whisper of spice. The luxurious gift box preserves this sensory spectacle and elevates gifting occasions. Perfectly suited to spirited pairings, Krug recommends savoring it as an elegant aperitif, or alongside refined dishes like anchovies, foie gras, lamb tagine, game, white meats, and even high-end sushi—each enhancing the Champagne’s vivacious acidity and lingering finish.
