G.H. Mumm's Grand Cordon Brut Rosé is a vibrant expression of the house's historic style, which dates back to its founding in 1827. The iconic red sash, or 'Cordon Rouge', indented directly into the revolutionary glass bottle designed by Ross Lovegrove, pays tribute to the French Légion d'Honneur. This non-vintage cuvée is built on a foundation of Pinot Noir, typically around 60% and sourced from legendary villages such as Bouzy and Verzenay, which imparts structure and power. This is balanced by the elegance of Chardonnay and the round, fruity appeal of Pinot Meunier. To achieve its signature salmon-pink hue and intense red berry character, the chef de cave blends in a selection of fine still red wines. Aged for a minimum of two years on its lees, this Champagne marries the house's historic boldness with a contemporary, energetic freshness.
