Mumm Cordon Rouge Millésime

The palate is bright, structured, and quietly powerful, opening with ripe pear, yellow apple, and white peach. The fruit feels generous yet precise, carried by a line of fresh, mineral‑driven acidity that reflects the vintage’s tension. A layer of acacia honey, soft pastry warmth, and subtle citrus cream builds through the mid‑palate, giving the wine both richness and lift. There’s a faint smoky, reductive edge at first, which quickly resolves into clarity and depth. The mousse is fine and persistent, supporting the wine’s shape without adding weight. The finish is long, mineral, and elegantly tapered, with lingering notes of pear skin, citrus pith, and a gentle honeyed echo, leaving an impression of vintage precision wrapped in Mumm’s signature delicacy.
