Cuvée Classic - Weingut Krug

The elegant Cuvée Classic from Weingut Krug flows into the glass with a bright purple-red color. On the nose, this red wine from Weingut Krug reveals all kinds of blueberries, blackcurrants, blackberries, damsons and plums. As if that were not already impressive, further aromas such as black tea, cocoa bean and cinnamon are added thanks to maturation in stainless steel.

The Weingut Krug Cuvée Classic delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. As one would naturally expect from a wine in the high-quality category, this Austrian charmer, despite all its dryness, enchants with the finest balance. Aroma does not necessarily require a lot of sugar. The finish of this youthful red wine from the Niederösterreich wine-growing region, more precisely from the Thermenregion, ultimately impresses with a beautiful aftertaste.

Vinification of the Cuvée Classic from Weingut Krug

There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Cuvée Classic can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for several months.
