Overlooked as one of the jewels of the Champagne region, embodies the art and passion of creating exceptional Champagnes for over 170 years.
Founded in 1843 by Johann-Joseph Krug, this family-run house has earned a legendary reputation for its relentless pursuit of excellence.
The story is one of dedication to the art of Champagne. Johann-Joseph Krug, originally from Mainz, Germany, moved to Reims, France, to pursue his dream of creating an exceptional Champagne. He founded his own house, and since then, six generations have succeeded each other at the head of the company, each bringing their unique expertise.
The Domaine is located in Reims, in the heart of the Champagne, and its vineyards cover around 20 hectares. What sets the house apart is its commitment to creating prestigious Champagnes using artisanal winemaking methods and an uncompromising approach to quality. The vineyards are located in the region's Grands Crus, providing grapes of the highest quality for the production of their cuvées.
In contrast to many Champagne houses that focus on the consistency of one cuvée style, Krug is famous for its bold blending of different harvest years and grape varieties. Each cuvée is crafted from over 120 wines from Réserve, giving each bottle exceptional complexity and richness.

The Krug Clos du Mesnil 2009 boasts a brilliant, luminous pale gold color, enlivened by a bubbly effervescence of great finesse. The nose is both complex and refined, opening with floral notes of honeysuckle and white flowers, accompanied by delicate vegetal nuances. The profile then evolves into rich notes of brioche, gingerbread, and orange blossom madeleines, enhanced by a touch of citrus. The palate is distinguished by remarkable precision and a finely chiseled texture. Flavours of freshly squeezed ripe lemon, generous citrus, and pear in syrup express themselves with intensity and purity. The wine is structured by beautiful bitter notes that add depth and dimension. The finish is long and elegant, slightly spicy, carried by a persistent mineral tension. After more than sixteen years of aging in the cellar, this cuvée already offers beautiful harmony, while retaining remarkable aging potential that will allow it to gain even more complexity and character over time.
