Now Viewing: Krug (France)
Champagne Krug, a famous champagne manufacturer established in 1843 by Johann-Joseph Krug in Mainz on the Rhine, makes only prestige cuvee. The whole series of Krug champagne are 100% fermented in small cask, when most champagne houses have adopted stainless vat to process fermentation. The defining feature of Krug is that despite its high quality the majority of the output is non-vintage, or "multi-vintage" as the Krug family prefers to call it. Its champagne is generally made from grapes harvested over a number of years. All the bottles produced by the house share the distinctive “Krug style”—a rich, dry, long-lasting taste that makes Krug as much like a fine white Burgundy as a champagne.
