KRUG Champagne Dinner
Tuesday, November 12 | 6:30 pm

On Tuesday, November 12, Origo Club will welcome Krug brand ambassador Brent Sutcliffe as a special guest when it teams with Moët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton SE to co-host a five-course dinner menu paired with four exquisite cuvées of Krug Champagne including a Krug Grand Cuvée in magnum edition, Krug Rosé, and 2004 and 2006 vintages of Krug Vintage.

Widely regarded as the fullest expression of Champagne, Krug Grand Cuvée is created every year from a blend of 120 different wines selected from more than 10 different vintages to lend myriad flavours and aromas to each bottle. Unexpected and daring, Krug Rosé’s broad and extensive aromatic palette is known for its extreme delicacy and ability to confront full-flavoured dishes, while Krug Vintages are enhanced by a stay of more than a decade in the Krug cellars.
