WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Krug Rosé 27th Edition is created through a meticulous blending process, combining wines from the 2015 harvest with a significant proportion of reserve wines from previous vintages, some dating back to 2005. A key technique involves the traditional maceration of 10% of the Pinot Noir grapes from specific parcels, which contributes to the wine's color, spice, and structural elements. Following blending, the Champagne undergoes an extended aging period of approximately seven years on its lees in the producer's cellars before disgorgement.
