"The colour is pale and very youthful; the bouquet has creamy yeast lees and a dab of honey. Honeycomb including its wax. The palate is soft, round and full, with vitality as well as gentleness. Lovely balace and clean finish. (80/20 pinot noir/chardonnay, only grand cru vineyards" Huon Hooke, Real Review, Nov 2020

A pale-yellow colour with gold reflections. The expression of Mumm's passion for Pinot Noir, the emblematic grape variety of the House, expressing all its aging potential. Rich aromas of white-fleshed fruits and floral notes of buttered brioche and fresh hazelnut. Great freshness and balance on the palate with a long finish culminating in a lively and expressive finish.

Mumm Millésimé 2013 is a vintage champagne of magnificent complexity and prestige. The finesse and freshness of the Chardonnay brings an elegant but discreet touch to this wine, tempering the power and structure of the Pinot Noir, while continuing to gently express itself.

Made with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes harvested from the best Grand Cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims (Ambonnay, Mailly, Bouzy, Verzy, and Mareuil-sur-Ay) and the Côte des Blancs (Oger, Avize, Cramant) regions of France, Mumm Millésimé 2013 is a cuvée which has already been aged for several years in cellars, with magnificent aging potential.

Mumm Millésimé 2013 is elegance transmuted into a singular vintage champagne. Candlelight illuminates a prestigious restaurant – imposing, yes, but intimate too, the ideal backdrop for the rare pleasure of sharing a most intriguing wine.

Food Pairing: Ideally paired with dishes featuring raw or sauced fish, lobster, oysters and other fine shellfish. It also pairs nicely with fresh goat or sheep cheeses.
