Types of Mumm Champagne:
 
G.H.MUMM Cordon Rouge is a full bodied champagne and is the icon of the house wearing the red ribbon since 1876,

G.H.MUMM Demi-Sec is the perfect champagne to serve with desserts. It is a bit sweeter than the Cordon Rouge. The blend used to create this champagne comes from a single harvest with mature reserve wines.

G.H.MUMM Rosé was introduced in 1957 with the name Cordon Rose. A Japanese artist and friend of the company chairman at the time, Leonard Foujita created a fresco depicting “The Virgin in the Vines”, which became cuvée’s emblem and appears on the metallic cap on top of the cork.

G.H.MUMM Grand Cru is a champagne that blends wines from five regions of Champagne including Aÿ, Bouzy, Avize, Verzenay and Cramant, which are all rated 100% on the quality scale.

G.H.MUMM Millésimé only uses grapes from that specific year’s harvest. This champagne is not created every year, as the harvest must warrant the excellence needed to create this fine champagne. The blend can only contain wines that are produced from that year’s harvest.

G.H. Mumm has only declared 53 Cordon Rouge vintages in 130 years which include the years of 1874, 1880, 1884, 1887, 1889, 1892, 1893, 1895, 1898, 1900, 1904, 1906, 1911,1920, 1921, 1923, 1926, 1928, 1929, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1937, 1945, 1947, 1949, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1958, 1959, 1961, 1962, 1964, 1966, 1969, 1971, 1973, 1975, 1976, 1979, 1982, 1985, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, and 1999.

Mumm de Cramant is a rare cuvee that has been created since 1882 exclusively from Chardonnay grapes from the Cramant terroir. The Mumm de Cramant has only been for sale rarely since 1960. Prior to this time, this champagne was reserved for the owners or friends of the House of G.H. Mumm.

At this time, this champagne can only be found in specialty outlets and the finest restaurants.

The History of Mumm Champagne

The House of G.H. Mumm throughout history has a strong lineage that includes knights and barons and can be traced back to the 12 century. The champagne producing family can be traced back to 1761, when Peter Arnold Mumm began a wine production and distribution business in Cologne.

By the beginning of the 19th century, Peter Mumm’s sons, Jacobus, Gottlieb and Phillip, established a champagne house in Rheims. The House of G.H. Mumm was officially established in 1827. The family created champagne a bit different from other houses of the era in that they purchased grapes directly from the growers instead of purchasing must or grape juice.

This gave G.H. Mumm, control over the quality of grapes that he used in creating his wines and champagnes. Today, the House of G.H. Mumm ranks as the third largest champagne producer in the world and sells close to eight million bottles every year.
