Every Krug Vintage champagne celebrates the distinct character of a particular year. A Krug Vintage is a blend of the most expressive wines from a single year, enhanced by a stay of over ten years in the cellars.
Krug 2000 is the last vintage of the millennium, nicknamed „Stormy Indulgence.“ Behind its nickname lies a climatically challenging year. For this champagne, only the best wines, produced from grapes from extraordinary plots, were used. Krug Vintage 2000 is created as a blend of 43% Chardonnay, 42% Pinot Noir and 15% Pinot Meuiner. Intense golden color with aromas of caramel, hazelnuts, nougat and pastries. In the mouth, it is rich, delicate and elegant, with distinctive citrus aromas such as lime zest. The finish is long and persistent.
After almost twenty years in the cellar, this vintage, as well as others from Krug, will reveal its complexity and richness of aromas and flavors over time.
