What kind of wine is Champagne Brut Rosé 'Grand Cordon' - G.H. Mumm (cased)

Champagne Brut Rosé "Grand Cordon" - G.H. Mumm (cased) is the refined and contemporary expression of one of the most renowned houses in Reims, at the heart of Champagne. G.H. Mumm is synonymous with excellence and a tradition linked to the Champenoise method, the in-bottle refermentation process that gives the wine its fine and persistent bubbles. This Brut Rosé is born from a skilful blend of Pinot Noir, which gives body and intensity, Chardonnay, responsible for freshness and minerality, and Pinot Meunier, which adds balance and roundness. The result is a Champagne with a lively character and pleasant elegance, designed for those who desire a special toast at any time of the year.

Vintage Details

The Mumm house selects only grapes from high-quality vintages, where the Champagne climate favors a balanced ripening of the bunches. Mild summers and sunny days, combined with temperature fluctuations, help preserve aromatic freshness and natural acidity, two key factors that make this Brut Rosé dynamic and perfectly balanced.

Winemaking and aging

The production of Champagne Brut Rosé "Grand Cordon" - G.H. Mumm follows the rigorous méthode classique, which involves a second fermentation in the bottle.

Mumm philosophy: enhancing the purity and freshness of the fruit.
