The Generosity of Champagne, Elevated to Art.
Among the great names in oenology, Maison Krug occupies a special place. Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug, this house was born from the vision of creating the best possible champagne every year - regardless of the fluctuations in the climate and harvests.
The result of this absolute commitment to excellence is the Krug Grande Cuvée, a masterful composition of more than 120 wines from different years, some aged for more than 15 years. More than a champagne, it is a true liquid masterpiece, made to express the fullness of aromas and flavours that no single vintage could achieve.
With a fine, persistent bubble, Krug Grande Cuvée is a vibrant golden colour and a complex aromatic bouquet with notes of hazelnut, nougat, quince, apple, flowers and citrus. On the palate, it reveals depth and freshness, a creamy texture and a finish of rare elegance. A champagne designed not for occasions, but to mark moments.
How to Enjoy Krug Grande Cuvée: Food Pairings and Recommendations.
Krug Grande Cuvée is a versatile champagne, created to surprise both in moments of celebration and in high-level gastronomic experiences. Its complexity makes it suitable for unexpected pairings that challenge the idea that champagne should only accompany starters or desserts. At O Gaveto Restaurant, the following pairings stand out:
-
Fresh seafood - The delicacy and minerality of seafood enhance Krug's vibrant freshness and creamy texture.
-
Grilled fish - The purity and elegance of fresh fish on the grill is echoed in the aromatic layers of champagne.
-
Sea Rice - The richness of sea flavours in dishes such as seafood rice or lobster rice harmonise with the breadth and structure of Krug Grande Cuvée.
-
Desserts with nuts or caramel - The subtle sweetness of an almond tart or a traditional pudding balances the tension between acidity and ripeness of this exceptional champagne.
To best appreciate the complexity of Krug Grande Cuvée, we recommend tasting it between 9ºC and 12ºC, in white wine glasses that allow it to breathe and reveal itself fully.
