Cordon Rouge

The Cordon Rouge is the best-known cuvée of the house of Mumm, named after the red ribbon that runs across the bottle. It relies on opposites that complement each other: power and freshness. To achieve this, 77 crus are blended, 45% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier. A share of 25 to 30% reserve wine gives the Brut additional depth.

On the nose come ripe and tropical fruit such as lychee and pineapple, with vanilla and honey. On the palate, fresh fruit follows with a hint of caramel, and the finish is long. It works as well as an aperitif as it does with fish, white meat or smoked dishes. Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a white wine glass or a tulip. This version comes in a gift box.
