The production of the Grand Cordon G.H. Mumm magnum
The Grand Cordon magnum is the result of a unique blend of over 100 crus, reflecting the diversity and richness of the Champagne terroirs. Pinot Noir, which makes up the majority of the blend, provides power and structure. Chardonnay adds finesse and elegance, while Pinot Meunier brings a fruity roundness.

After extended aging for 20 months in the cellar, the Grand Cordon is dosed at 8 g/L, balancing freshness and intensity.
