Floral nose, citrus, creamy mouth, freshness, a rather chardonnay nose but the mouth is structured by the pinot, a round final zesty end.

the house maison mumm
behind the cuvée
Maison Mumm’s first recorded vintage champagne was bottled in 1842. A blend of wines from the vineyards of the Montagne de Reims, already known for the excellence of their Pinot Noir grapes (Ay, Verzenay, Bouzy), and from the village of Sillery, the House style was quite apparent even then.
Mumm vintage champagnes showcase the House’s finest harvests and express the exceptional aging potential of highest-quality Pinot Noir grapes.
2013 vintage: after an exceptionally cool spring, the summer was hot, sunny and stormy. Late flowering in July pushed the harvest back to October. Happily, the grapes were healthy and showed perfect maturity.
