Since 1843, the House of Krug has honoured this vision with each new edition of Krug Grande Cuvée, now brought to life by female Cellar Master Julie Cavil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComposed around the harvest of 2016, Krug Grande Cuvée 172\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csup\u003eème\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Édition is a blend of 146 wines from 11 different years.

An extremely wet spring, with 70% more rainfall versus the norm between April and June, made vineyard work difficult and increased disease pressure. Clement weather ensued from flowering onwards, allowing the vineyard to recover, ending with a heatwave at the end of ripening. The marathon harvest took place from September 9 to October 2 yielding classic grapes in good health and wines all about expression and character, regardless of grape variety or origin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"subtitle mb-xs field field--description field--type-string-long field--label-hidden\"\u003eA light golden colour and fine, vivacious bubbles, holding a promise of pleasure. Aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe, dried and citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread.
