Mumm Napa produces several types of sparkling wine worthy of fanfare. With deep roots traced back to France, Mumm honors its past by employing classic winemaking techniques. Browse Ohio shelves to find these best-selling styles, fitting for all tastes and occasions.
Blanc de Blancs
With a name meaning “white of whites,” this varietal is predominantly made with chardonnay grapes and a pinch of pinot gris. The chardonnay contributes a citrus tone, and pinot gris adds a mix of stone fruit texture and flavor. Loaded with juicy apple and peach notes, this mouthwatering bubbly is a divine match for seafood and salads.
Brut Prestige
Beautifully structured, this sparkler is a salute to Mumm’s Champagne heritage. A blend of pinot noir and chardonnay grapes, it goes through an extended yeast aging process that lasts about 18 months and adds complexity. The result is full-bodied but also refreshing. The nose exudes flavors of buttered toast and toffee spice from the oak aging. A creamy texture of red apple, plum, cherry and honeysuckle ensures the fruit flavors keep coming.
FUN FACT:
There are an estimated 49 million bubbles in one 750-milliliter bottle of Champagne.
Brut Rosé
A blend of pinot noir and chardonnay, this elegant beauty goes with all foods and makes a perfect holiday gift. Fresh from opening to the finish, fragrances of strawberry jam and plum entice you with each bubble popping in your glass. The creaminess on the palate lingers, so you can wholly enjoy the bright fruity taste and crisp finish.
Cuvee M Red
This sweet red sparkling wine is made using a traditional method in which the best grapes undergo two fermentation cycles. It’s rich and complex with a nose of cassis, plums and elderberries. French oak barrels add a hint of spice, making Cuvee M versatile and great paired with myriad holiday hors d’oeuvres.
