Krug’s Champagne Brut Grande Cuvée 170ème Édition is one of the maison’s most prestigious cuvées, created through a unique blend of 195 wines from 12 vintages (from 1998 to 2014), with 45% reserve wines that impart roundness and complexity. The final blend is 51% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay and 11% Meunier. Produced using the traditional method, it involves bottle fermentation and extended ageing on the lees, which enhance its elegance and complexity. E = 314kJ/75kcal per 100 ml
