Wine Spectator

Alison Napjus

A majestic rosé Champagne of impeccable balance, with remarkable depth and focus to its flavors of raspberry purée, kirsch and grilled nuts, plus hints of saffron, blood orange peel and ground coffee. The finely detailed mousse glides across the palate, enmeshed with chiseled acidity. The vibrant frame carries the profile on the long, long finish. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Disgorged winter 2022 to 2023 (Krug ID 123009). Drink now through 2034.

Antonio Galloni

The NV Krug Rosé 28ème Édition is terrific. A rich, substantial Champagne, the Rosé possesses notable textural depth and substance. Hints of orange peel, cinnamon, dried rose petals and sweet red cherry fruit are all laced together in a creamy, beautifully resonant Champagne. Some previous editions have been more linear, but the 28ème feels richer, with a greater role given to the Pinot Noir, with important contributions from base wines from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and Les Riceys. Time in the glass brings out gorgeous focus to pull it all together. Readers will find an extremely versatile Rosé that will provide immense pleasure, both on its own or at the dinner table. This release is based on 2016, with 38% reserve wines back to 2010, 58% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay and 17% Meunier. Disgorged: Winter 2022-2023. Krug ID: 123009.

La RVF

Magnificent Krug Rosé 28th Edition, also based on 2016, which is just beginning to reveal its great complexity, with notes of small berries, cherry stone, a coating, delicate, creamy, gentle mousse, and a finish of very great persistence.

Description

Characteristics and tasting advice for Krug Rosé 28th Edition

Tasting

Color
The color reveals a subtle and elegant pale pink hue.

Nose
Notes of orangeade, cherry pits, and raspberry jam are accompanied by accents of pastry and lemon meringue.

Palate
The wine presents a perfect balance between substance and finesse. Assertive red fruits such as raspberry, redcurrant, and cherry give way to softer and sweeter nuances, followed by a finish on slightly bitter citrus fruits. Notes of honey, citrus, and dried fruits linger for a long time, enhanced by the fine bubbles.

Food and wine pairings

This champagne perfectly accompanies savory dishes such as foie gras, lamb, game, white meat, and venison. It also pairs well with spicy dishes but is not recommended with sweet desserts.

Service and aging

The Krug Rosé 28th Edition should be served between 9°C and 12°C to fully reveal its richness.

An exceptional champagne from Maison Krug combining power and refinement

The estate

Founded in 1843 by Joseph Krug in Reims, Maison Krug is a pillar of excellence in champagne. With vineyards spread across several regions of Champagne, it stands out for its library of reserve wines, allowing for the creation of consistently high-quality champagnes. Currently led by Olivier Krug, the house remains faithful to the innovative spirit of its founder.

The wine

Born from the dream of the fifth generation to create a unique rosé champagne that could be produced each year, this cuvée harmoniously combines elegance and audacity.

Perpetuating the family tradition of excellence, this Krug Rosé 28th Edition results from a rigorous selection of 32 wines from 6 different years. The youngest dating from 2016 and the oldest from 2010. The reserve wines, selected from 8 different years, make up 38% of the final blend.

The vintage

The year 2016, around which this champagne was composed, was marked by very contrasting climatic conditions, with an extremely wet spring followed by mild weather and finally a heatwave at the end of maturation.

Vinification and aging

The Krug Rosé 28th Edition aged for about 7 years in the house's cellars.

Grapes

The blend consists of 58% Pinot Noir (including 10% traditional red Pinot Noir macerated on their skin), 25% Chardonnay, and 17% Meunier.
