Krug

Champagne

Although now part of the giant Louis Vuitton-Moët Hennessey group and incorporated into the Veuve-Clicquot company, Krug is still run by the Krug family, which originated in Germany and founded the firm in 1843. The wines are all fermented in oak, a practice that adds complexity, finesse and richness. Long aging on the yeast, strict selection of grapes and a father-to-son winemaking tradition add up to the quality that makes Krug so highly regarded.
