Medium steely amber color. Aromas and flavors of grilled nectarine, raspberry and strawberry, red apple and blood orange, and bread dough with a round, finely carbonated, dryish medium body and a very long finish with notes of red apple, raspberry, and orange, dried flowers, and baked apricot turnover. Simply delicious, and loaded with vibrant red fruit and balanced with refreshing citrus; a prudent host should have one of these chilled at all times for any unexpected occasion that might arise.

Aromas of rose petals, camembert, fresh strawberries and flowers follow through to a full body with attractive phenolics and tension in the palate. Savory and fruity at the same time, but all in check. Pinot noir and pinot meunier. Drink now.

Lots of cherries, red berries and some orange zest with a delicate touch of toast. Very juicy and refreshing, the grapefruit acidity making the finish mouthwatering. A hint of positive bitterness adds to the impression of vitality.
Tasting Notes
The salmon-pink robe glows with glints of orange, energized by a stream of fine bubbles. Appetizingly elegant and intense, the wine delivers notes of candied berries: intense, fruity aromas of strawberry and fresh red currants backed with a bit of sweet spice and a subtle yet luscious hint of red-berry coulis.
A vivacious initial impression: energetic, bracing and fresh. Elegantly structured, it delivers flavors of fragrant summer fruits and a long, bright finish, balanced by the succulent sweetness of red berries.
Winemaker Notes
Embodying a passionate personality, Mumm Grand Cordon Rosé expresses its intense, fruity character with rich aromas of wild red and black berries, typical of the Pinot Noir grape variety cultivated in Maison Mumm’s legendary vineyards in the Champagne region of France.
The power and structure of Pinot Noir is delicately balanced with the elegance of Chardonnay and the fruitiness of Meunier. A portion of red wine brings intensity and notes of forest fruits and spice to this elegant blend to create a brut rosé champagne that is at once light, intense, and fresh.
Conjuring up the radiance of those golden evening hours, Mumm Grand Cordon Rosé is a perfect champagne to savour. Inspiring and intense, it can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a range of creative and modern dishes.
