✨ Technical Specifications
The G.H. Mumm RSRV Foujita Rose Brut is a prestigious cuvee that beautifully marries the worlds of fine art and exceptional winemaking. Named in honor of the acclaimed Japanese-French artist Leonard Tsuguharu Foujita, a close friend of legendary Mumm president Rene Lalou, this Champagne features the iconic rose fresco designed by the artist in 1957. Sourced exclusively from Grand Cru terroirs, the blend is dominated by Pinot Noir from historic villages such as Verzenay, Bouzy, and Ambonnay, which provides structure and rich red fruit character, complemented by the elegance of Chardonnay from Cramant and Avize. A portion of still red wine from Bouzy is blended in to impart its delicate salmon-pink hue and vinous complexity. Aged on its lees for at least four years, this Champagne represents a historic tradition of reserving the house's finest bottles for a select circle of friends.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1827 in Reims by the Mumm brothers and their partners, Champagne G.H. Mumm is one of the most storied and prominent houses in the Champagne region of France. The house's legacy was cemented in 1876 when Georges Hermann Mumm introduced the iconic red silk ribbon across the bottle—inspired by the Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honour—crystallizing their enduring motto, 'Only the Best.' Anchored by extensive Grand Cru vineyard holdings, particularly in the Montagne de Reims, Mumm's winemaking philosophy highlights the structure, freshness, and power of Pinot Noir. The house is internationally celebrated for its vibrant flagship Cordon Rouge Brut, alongside sophisticated prestige bottlings such as Cuvée R. Lalou and the historic, mineral-rich Mumm de Cramant Blanc de Blancs.
