FRUIT OF THE VINE, WORK OF HUMAN HANDS

FEW CHAMPAGNE PRODUCERS have a higher reputation than Krug. A cornerstone of the Maison's craftsmanship is the concept of individuality, the art of turning the harvest from every plot into a separate wine and then following its individual character before any blending decision is made. When the House of Krug adds a musical approach to champagne creation, each plot of vines is a musician and a cellar master; and is its conductor selecting those who will together perform the most generous expression of Grande Cuvée each year: 2019 was the first encounter between the House's compositions and celebrated composer Ryuichi Sakamoto.

SEEING SOUND, HEARING KRUG

Building upon decades of experience translating emotions into music, the creator of soundtracks for some of the world's most celebrated films, spent 18 months composing and finally recording a Suite in three movements to illustrate a trio of Krug Champagnes called "Suite for Krug in 2008": Krug Clos du Mesnil 2008, Krug 2008 and Krug Grande Cuvée 164ème Édition.
