Potential of keeping
Like all wines, champagne can be kept for varying lengths of time, depending on the type. Under optimal storage conditions, champagne can be kept for 1 to 2 years for Brut cuvées, and up to 4/5 years or even longer for vintage and prestige champagnes. Whatever happens, rest assured that you'll never be able to open your champagne too early, as the Champagne Houses only release their cuvées when they have reached perfect ripeness and are ready for immediate consumption.
Krug Rosé is a blend of 3 grape varieties and 10 to 15 different wines. A rigorous selection is made when choosing the three grape varieties that will be used in the complex blends produced by Krug: Pinot Noir, which is deep, intense and gives the wine exceptional longevity. The Meunier, with very fruity notes. Chardonnay, fine and elegant.
The Krug singularity. Its methods guaranteeing the highest quality, its 19-hectare vineyard, the strictness of its supplies from 56 hectares and its three million bottles that have been waiting for many years in its cellars make Krug the reference for Prestige Champagne. Krug is the only major brand to ferment all of its champagnes in small oak barrels, a symbol of its unfailing commitment to tradition. It is from this delicate operation that its champagnes with intense aromas and rich, complex tastes are born. Thanks to this wood fermentation, the unique style of Krug has been perpetuated for 6 generations. An unprecedented case in Champagne, Krug maintains an ageing stock of at least 6 to 8 years. The result of this patience with slowly maturing champagnes is an exceptional maturity and longevity.
