The production of the Cordon Rouge G.H. Mumm magnum

It combines 45% Pinot Noir for its power and structure, 30% Chardonnay for its finesse and elegance, and 25% Pinot Meunier, which brings fruity and rounded notes. The reserve wines, representing 25 to 30% of the blend, add depth and complexity. After prolonged aging in the cellars of G.H. Mumm, the cuvée is dosed at 8 g/L, preserving its freshness while adding a touch of indulgence.
A blend of several vintages
