A NEW CHAMPAGNE

Joseph Krug established House Krug in Reims in 1843. He had a dream—to create the best Champagne he could, every year, regardless of environmental conditions and climate. He paid close attention to each vineyard’s character, acknowledging and respecting the unique characteristics of each plot, and the individuality of each wine. He also built quite an extensive library of reserve wines. Joseph Krug had a unique and original approach to making Champagne, forgoing the idea of vintages, and creating a full expression of the drink every year. Now on its sixth generation, House Krug continues to realize Joseph’s dream, creating Champagnes that have a consistent level of distinction and quality.

Storage Instructions

Fine sparkling wine must be handled with care. For short-term storage (a few days to a month), you can keep your bottle upright—but away from bright or artificial light. For long-term storage, especially for vintage cuvées, you must store the bottles on their side in a wine rack or cellar to keep the cork from drying out. The ideal temperature for storage is between 7 to 10°C. Once opened, a bottle will be good for 1 to 3 days standing upright in the refrigerator.
