✨ Tekniske specifikationer
G.H. Mumm's Brut Selection represents a refined expression of the house's historic craftsmanship, which dates back to 1827 when the Mumm brothers established their cellars in Reims. This cuvée is celebrated for its gastronomic profile, typically blending a dominant proportion of Pinot Noir—sourced from prestigious Grand and Premier Cru villages such as Verzenay and Bouzy—with Chardonnay for elegance and Pinot Meunier for roundness. Reflecting the house's historic motto, 'Only the Best,' the wine undergoes extended cellar aging on its lees to develop its signature complexity. This patient maturation imparts rich aromas of toasted brioche, ripe yellow fruits, and subtle honeyed undertones, all framed by the chalky minerality characteristic of the Champagne region's ancient limestone soils.
🍾 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.
