Krug Grande Cuvée 172ème Édition is a complex Champagne created by blending 146 wines from 11 different years, with the oldest being the 1998 vintage. It has an intense yellow gold color and offers an aromatic nose of white flowers, lavender, and almond, evolving to hints of eucalyptus and menthol on the palate. The flavor profile includes dominant white fruits, citrus notes, and a fresh, persistent finish with notes of hazelnut, nougat, and brioche.
