Krug
Ref: A074895
As the restaurant critic Paul Levy once put it "Krug is the champagne that God gives his angels when they have been especially good!"
The house was established in 1843 by Johann Joseph Krug who hailed from Mainz in Germany. Ever since, the firm has been run by a father and son partnership and this is one of the things that makes Krug such an outstanding company. The Krugs are also perfectionists and it is not unusual for 50 different wines from 25 different villages, 10 different vintages and three different grape varieties to go into their 'house' wine, the Grande Cuvée NV. Typically some 30 to 35% of the blend comes from older wines.
All Krug's wines are vinified in 205 litre barrels made from weathered Argonne oak which lends flavour to the wine but in no way dominates the final balance.
The 1995 is remarkably fresh and lively, floral aromas with notes of orange blossom, dried fig, ripe quince and sweet spices. It has a delicacy and charm that make it a perfect contrast to rich, creamy dishes; turbot in a hollondaise sauce, sea bass in white butter as well as thick, creamy desserts.
