The 168th Edition of Krug Grande Cuve is created from the 2012 harvest, a good year with low yields, due to the variety of climatic events that occurred in the region. Frost, rain, storms and hail indeed fell on the Champagne vineyards during the winter and spring, before an exceptionally dry period of maturation (unheard of since 1974), which resulted in a 20% drop in yields.
