Visionary Joseph Krug established this brand in 1843.  House director Olivier Krug is a sixth-generation family member dedicated to maintaining the uncompromising quality of this renowned house. There are 150 reserve wines from 12-14 vintages that make up the blend. It takes 20 years to craft a Krug Grand Cuvée. This wine has an energetic quality along with an extreme sense of elegance and grace. There is a dramatic display of fine persistent bubbles, brioche and racy yellow fruits that intertwine, creating a breathtaking finish that lasts for several minutes.
