It is bottled at 12.5% ABV and made for celebrations and everyday toasts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMumm's California home is Mumm Napa, whose winery and visitor center stand on the Silverado Trail in Rutherford. Founding winemaker Guy Devaux brought Champagne know-how to the valley, and that heritage still shapes every bottle: the wines are made from classic sparkling varieties, blended for a consistent house style and aged on their lees before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor Brut Prestige, the grapes are harvested by hand in the cool morning hours so they reach the winery in pristine condition. The blend is built on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in equal measure, with a small share of other varieties completing it. The base wines are fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel to keep their freshness and fruit, then the winemakers assemble the blend that defines the signature taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine then goes through its second fermentation in the bottle and rests for 16 months on the yeast, which adds complexity, subtle notes of bread dough and layers of creaminess. After disgorgement it is aged for a further three months on the cork so the dosage fully marries with the base wine before it leaves the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is relaxed yet elegant: fresh orchard and stone fruit, bright citrus and a gentle toastiness, carried by fine bubbles and lively acidity. It is the kind of sparkling wine that works from the first toast of the evening right through dinner, and at its size and style it is an easy bottle to bring to any gathering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red apple, juicy pear, nectarine and strawberry, with a hint of biscuit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orchard and stone fruit with citrus, touches of marzipan and toast, and fine, lively acidity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich, creamy and lingering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mumm (Mumm Napa), Rutherford, California\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brut sparkling wine, méthode traditionnelle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrapes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with a small share of other varieties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 months on the lees, plus 3 months on the cork after disgorgement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e California, United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe Brut Prestige well chilled, around 45°F, in a flute or a white wine glass, which gives the aromas a little more room. It is versatile at the table and pairs well with sushi, creamy cheeses, hors d'oeuvres and poultry. It is also an excellent base for sparkling cocktails: top fresh orange juice for a classic Mimosa, or use it in a Spritz or French 75. Once opened, close the bottle with a sparkling wine stopper and keep it in the refrigerator to hold on to the bubbles for a day or two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Mumm Sparkling Brut Prestige a Champagne?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It is a California sparkling wine made by the méthode traditionnelle, the same bottle-fermentation method used in Champagne, by Mumm Napa in California.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat grapes are in Brut Prestige?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is built on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, with a small share of other varieties completing the blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is it aged?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt rests 16 months on the lees after its second fermentation, then a further three months on the cork after disgorgement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/wine\"\u003eWine collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mumm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68083130138933,"sku":"VWS200430423","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-35843.webp?v=1793992524","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/mumm-sparkling-brut-prestige-california-sparkling-wine-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
