Krug 2006 Brut Champagne – Vintage Prestige Cuvée 1.5L (Magnum)

Krug 2006 Brut Champagne – 1.5L Magnum

The Krug 2006, affectionately called Capricious Beauty, represents a radiant vintage shaped by generosity and harmony. After more than fifteen years in Krug’s cellars, it unveils a remarkable interplay of richness, energy, and refinement—an embodiment of the House’s artistry in expressing character through time.

A luminous golden hue introduces aromas of brioche, toasted almonds, citrus confit, honey, and warm spice, followed by subtle hints of ginger and pastry cream. The palate is full-bodied and vibrant, balancing ripe fruit intensity with crystalline freshness. Layers of candied orange, nougat, and chalk minerality culminate in a precise, lingering finish.

Crafted from a meticulous blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier sourced from Krug’s finest parcels, the 2006 vintage reflects the generosity of a warm year tempered by the House’s mastery of balance. Presented in magnum format, this edition ages gracefully and delivers an even deeper expression of complexity and vitality.
