Krug 2008 is the beautifully contrasted story of one of Champagne’s coolest vintages in 14 years, and least sunny in almost half a century. The absence of extremes in 2008 provided ideal circumstances for the creation of a timeless vintage. Balancing structure and finesse, this champagne is nicknamed “Classic Beauty” by the Tasting Committee.
With elegance and depth, Krug 2008 is a blend of Pinot Noir (53%), Meunier (25%), and Chardonnay (22%).
Exceptional freshness with aromas of flinty white stones, flowers, almonds and lemons. There’s hazelnut and strawberry here, too. Complex. The palate has a long, powerful and smooth-honed feel with very assertive citrus flavors, driven by long acidity. A perfect 2008.

In Champagne, where tradition often bows to the calendar, Krug chose a different master: vision. Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, the House was built on a radical belief for its time — that true greatness could be achieved not by the declaration of a single year, but by the art of composition itself.
