Merchant's description

Originally established by German born Joseph Krug in 1843, Krug is arguably the most luxurious champagne brand, with a loyal following worldwide. This release is Krug’s 1982 vintage cuvée, an exceptional blend composed of 54% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay and 16% Pinot Meunier. It is a more full-bodied expression, reminiscent of the renowned Krug 1964 and 1953. This epic champagne is in its prime drinking window right now.
