Tasting notes for the Krug 2011 Brut Champagne 

  • EYE: Krug 2011 Brut immediately captivates with its bright straw-yellow color, enhanced by golden reflections. Its fine and persistent mousse forms a string of elegant bubbles, promising a delicate and steady effervescence in the glass.
  • NOSE: This champagne reveals a complex and expressive bouquet. Aromas of ripe white fruits, such as apple and pear, mingle with notes of citrus zest and white flowers. Hints of toasted bread and honey complement this rich and fragrant olfactory palette.
  • MOUTH: A structure that is both powerful and elegant. The lively attack gives way to a creamy and silky texture, delicately enveloping the palate. The flavors of fresh fruits harmonize with nuances of toasted hazelnuts and brioche, while a lively acidity brings balance and freshness.

 

In short: The Krug 2011 Brut is a champagne of great elegance and remarkable aromatic complexity. It can be stored in your wine cellarfor a few more years to allow its aromas to develop even further. This champagne will brilliantly accompany a wide variety of dishes, such as seafood, roasted poultry, refined Asian dishes, or fruit desserts.

The purest quality of Champagne

 

The Champagne House Krug is now a venerable old lady, born in 1843 in Reims. Its founder, Johann-Joseph Krug (a German citizen from Mainz, which used to be controlled by France), spent 8 years working for the Maison Jacquesson before going his own way. Thanks to his partner Hippolyte de Vivès, and his will to create the best Champagne in the world (and the physical incarnation of pleasure), Joseph quickly succeeded in turning his new brand into an international powerhouse.

When he died in 1866, his son Paul rose up to the task of managing the family business, since he had been trained by Joseph. Like father like son, Paul Krug also aimed to unlock the hidden potential of all his wines and to reinforce the character of each parcel of his vineyard. His hard work truly paid off during the 1880's, when the popularity of the Champagne House Krug skyrocketed.

Since then, many members of the Krug family have helped the estate grow: Joseph Krug II, grandson of Johann-Joseph, in 1910; his son Paul Krug II, during the 1930's; Rémi and Henri Krug, in 1962. Finally, the Krug brand was bought in 1999 by the LVMH Group, which specializes in luxury goods. However, the estate remains in the family, with Olivier Krug (its proud sixth-generation representative) acting as the current director.
