G.H. Mumm Grand Cordon is the signature Champagne of the Reims house, instantly recognisable by the red sash moulded into its bottle. It is bottled at 12% ABV.
Grand Cordon expresses all the nuances of Pinot Noir, the backbone of the Mumm style, with grapes sourced from more than 100 crus. The power and structure of Pinot Noir is balanced by the elegance and minerality of Chardonnay and the fruitiness of Meunier.
The result is a structured, vinous Champagne with intense, complex fresh fruit flavours and a long, powerful finish.
Grand Cordon is a classic gift for any occasion.
Champagne can only come from the Champagne region of north-eastern France, and it gains its bubbles from a second fermentation in the bottle, the traditional method. Non-vintage cuvées are blended from several harvests so that each house can keep its signature style consistent from year to year, and they rest on their lees for at least fifteen months before release.
