"On the nose, aromas of rose hips, cured ham, mulberries, redcurrant, peony, pepper and pink grapefruit. On the palate, delicate flavours of honey, citrus and dried fruit with a long finish, enhanced by its fine bubbles complete the experience." - Krug, Winemaker
Pinot Noir wines comprise 57% of the final blend of Krug Rosé 27ème Édition, of which 10% are traditionally macerated red Pinot Noir from the Aÿ and Mareuil-sur-Aÿ parcels. As with every Édition of Krug Rosé, this Champagne is particularly intense, distinctive and elegant." - Julie Cavil, Krug Cellar Master
"Based on the 2015 vintage, this rosé edition is pretty and exuberant, easy to enjoy and a pleasure to drink. It doesn't quite have the depth of the 28ème édition, but its red apple, cinnamon and raspberry jam complexity is still very impressive. The finish layers wisps of smoke with grilled bread and a sweet cranberry finish. A blend of 38 different wines from nine different years, back to 2005, with 10% red wine made from Pinot Noir." - 94 Points, Natalie Earl, Decanter
"The NV Rosé 27ème Édition is an elegant, gracious Champagne. Crushed red berry fruit, rose petals and spice are nicely layered in this soft, open-knit Rosé from Krug. There are no hard edges, quite an achievement for the challenging 2015 harvest. The 27ème Édition is an especially approachable young release. Of note is the relatively high percentage of Pinot Noir in this edition." - 93 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
