✨ Tekniske specifikationer
G.H. Mumm's Admiral Cup Reserve is a prestigious tribute to the historic connection between the legendary Champagne house and the world of elite yachting, specifically the celebrated Admiral's Cup regatta. Reflecting Mumm's avant-garde spirit and dedication to adventure, this Champagne is crafted primarily around the structure and power of Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims, beautifully balanced by the elegance of Chardonnay and the fruitiness of Pinot Meunier. The grapes are sourced from the region's signature chalk-dominant soils, which impart a distinct mineral tension. Following traditional Méthode Champenoise rules, the wine undergoes extensive cellar aging on its lees, developing a sophisticated profile characterized by bright citrus, crisp stone fruits, toasted brioche, and a refined, persistent effervescence reminiscent of ocean spray.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Champagne G.H. Mumm blev grundlagt i Reims i 1827 af Mumm-brødrene og deres partnere og hører til blandt de mest legendariske og fremtrædende huse i Champagne. Husets ikoniske status blev for alvor slået fast i 1876, da Georges Hermann Mumm prydede flaskerne med det berømte røde silkebånd – inspireret af Æreslegionens Grand Cordon – som et symbol på husets urokkelige motto: »Kun det bedste«. Med solide rødder i omfattende Grand Cru-besiddelser, særligt på Montagne de Reims, bygger Mumms vinstil på Pinot Noir-druens struktur, friskhed og kraftfulde karakter. Huset er verdenskendt for sin livlige signaturcuvée, Cordon Rouge Brut, samt sofistikerede prestigetapninger som Cuvée R. Lalou og den historiske, mineralske Mumm de Cramant Blanc de Blancs.
