Krug Rosé 28ème Édition is a truly unique champagne that brings together delicacy, structure, and depth in an elegant and sophisticated tasting experience. Based on the 2016 harvest, this edition blends 32 wines from six different years, including 38% reserve wines and a touch of traditionally macerated red Pinot Noir, which contributes richness in both color and character.


The final composition features 58% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, and 17% Meunier, resulting in a soft pink hue and an impressively complex profile. On the nose, it reveals aromas of rosehip, redcurrant, mulberry, peony, and pink grapefruit, while the palate offers gentle notes of honey, citrus, and dried fruit, all carried by a silky texture and a long, elegant finish.


Its surprising versatility shines when paired with bold culinary choices—from fine anchovies and foie gras to lamb, game, or spiced dishes—while avoiding sweet desserts, unless completely unsweetened. Krug Rosé 28ème Édition is a champagne for those seeking character, originality, and sensual richness, a true expression of the artistry and creative freedom of the House of Krug.
