New Release: 2013 Krug Vintage For Investment

Whenever Krug releases a new cuvée, the wine world pays attention. Not merely because exciting new Champagne is released from time to time, but because Krug is arguably the closest thing to a supreme authority among the very finest Champagne producers.

Now, the 2013 vintage of the house’s vintage Champagne has arrived on the market - and the level is towering, exactly as expected.

We have 48 bottles available, which we can now offer for investment at the lowest price in the world according to wine-searcher.com.

Krug – None Above, None Beside

Champagne lovers may forever debate which Champagne rightfully deserves to be called the world’s greatest. But when discussing the world’s finest Champagne producer, the answer becomes far less ambiguous.

With its broad product portfolio, Krug stands firmly within the absolute elite, regardless of category. Their non-vintage Champagne, Krug Grande Cuvée, is among the finest NV Champagnes in the world and comfortably stands comparison with most great vintage Champagnes. Krug Vintage delivers a consistently high level and belongs in the reference frame when comparing quality with wines such as Cristal and Salon.

In addition, Krug is also responsible for some of the world’s most sought-after and expensive Champagnes in the single-vineyard releases Clos du Mesnil and Clos d’Ambonnay.

Krug is next level. There is none above and none beside.

2013 Krug Vintage – Join From The Very Beginning

2013 Krug Vintage is brand new to the market, giving you the opportunity to participate from the very beginning.

Unsurprisingly, the quality is outstanding: Vinous awards it 99 points - surpassing even the 2008 vintage, which received 97 points there.

Wine Advocate awards it 96+ points (its highest score since the 2006 vintage with 97 points, and above the 2008 vintage with 93 points), placing it above the average across the past 10 vintages.

The quality is unquestionable, and by investing now, you are participating right from the start.

Perspective on a solid investment in a challenging market

If we look back in time to gain an indication of future potential, the 2004 vintage is particularly relevant. Here we find a vintage with a considerable history on the market and one that represents the closest comparable level to the 2013 vintage from both Vinous’ and Wine Advocate’s perspectives (2004 received 97 points from both).

Since 2021, the valuation of 2004 Krug Vintage has increased by 54 %* — notably during a period marked by a pressured market that has experienced the largest price declines seen over the past 20 years, while the 2004 vintage itself has declined by 18.5 %.

This is a solid investment with enormous potential in a normalised market.

RareWine Invest’s Opinion

Krug is simply something truly special, and the new 2013 Brut Vintage radiates the familiar Krug potential.

It is rare to have the opportunity to invest in a completely new Krug release, and here you not only get that opportunity, but also the chance to do so at a highly attractive price compared with the rest of the market.

This is an opportunity to position yourself in a strong release from one of the strongest Champagne brands at a time that suggests stability in the wine market and brighter times ahead.

Please note: I expect significant interest in these limited quantities, so if this is of interest to you, I would recommend acting quickly.
