Krug 2008 is an exceptional vintage, nicknamed "Classic Beauty" by the House's tasting committee for its balance, vibrant freshness and great purity. It comes from one of the coolest years in Champagne in over a decade.
Made from Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay and aged for around twelve years in the cellars, it shows remarkable complexity: elegant, vertical and long. A great ageworthy champagne for lovers of precision and collectors alike.
Key facts
Tasting notes
Candied lemon, fresh hazelnut, acacia honey and white flowers; a straight, mineral palate with a persistent finish of citrus, fine brioche and gentle spice.
An iconic champagne with exceptional ageing potential.
Serve Krug 2008 at 10 to 12 °C. The house of Krug recommends a white wine glass rather than a narrow flute, to let the aromas express themselves. Store the bottle lying down, in a cool, dark place.
Its tension and freshness pair with seared scallops, turbot with beurre blanc, langoustines or aged Comté.

No. Krug only declares a vintage when the year has a distinctive character it wants to tell. The rest of the time, the house focuses on the Grande Cuvée.
Every bottle carries a code on its back label, the Krug ID. Entered on the house website, it tells the story of the bottle: blend, disgorgement date and tasting advice.
