THE HOUSEmaison mumm
Behind the cuvée
In 1876, Georges Hermann Mumm took a cue from the Légion d’Honneur, France’s highest civilian award, and adorned his Brut cuvée with a red ribbon – a symbol of the champagne’s quality.
Later, in 1881, the ribbon was replaced by a label that displays the bold red sash known the world over. Instantly recognizable, the Cordon Rouge enjoys iconic status, symbol of Maison Mumm’s relentless pursuit of excellence.
