winemaker's notes:
The Crowning of an Exceptional Year
Krug only produces a Vintage when a crop has exceptional characteristics and sufficiently interesting features. To create exceptional vintages, the Krug family selects those wines that best express the "voice" of the chosen year. Krug Vintage is like a concerto, a joint venture between the Krug style and the personality of a certain year. The year is the soloist but the orchestra remains Krug.
