GH Mumm Cordon Rouge Formula 1 [Jeroboam - 3l]

GH Mumm Cordon Rouge Formula 1 [Jeroboam - 3l] is the flagship champagne of the House of Mumm, presented in the impressive Jeroboam format. For decades, Cordon Rouge has been a symbol of fresh balance and a refined Brut character, elegantly blending Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Mumm winery in Reims has created a classic Brut blend, which matures exceptionally well in this generous bottle, preserving its festive character. The unique format makes this champagne a perfect companion for grand occasions and a collector's item.

On the nose, green fruit, citrus, and gently toasted brioche notes mingle; on the palate, it displays fine bubbles, sparkling freshness, and balanced acidity, accompanied by yellow fruit, a hint of almond, and a light minerality. The finish is long, clean, and creamy, with an elegant spiciness that critics such as Falstaff, Parker, and Wine Spectator regularly praise, while Jancis Robinson and Jeff Leve emphasize the Brut's consistent drinkability.

The optimal drinking window is typically in the first third of its life, for non-vintage Champagnes like this one often around 3–6 years after bottling; Jeroboam also offers good aging potential without losing its freshness. Food pairing: oysters, scallops, sushi, light fish dishes, or a fine cheese board – all options accentuate the delicate minerality and freshness of this Champagne.
