Mumm is the champagne enjoyed at most parties and many sporting events from the Melbourne Cup to the Grand Prix. Its iconic red sash is associated with a daring character that is embodied throughout their teams globally and all the way to their cellar.

They champion the use of the meunier grape, which is often a added to other cuvees without fanfare in other houses. The absolutely pristine wine making facilities located in Mareuil-Sur-Ay are overseen by multiple generations of the family, as well as Chief Winemaker Francois Domi. The house purposely ferments at a lower temperature, lengthening the ferment to weeks and not days as can be standard in champagne, which helps capture the pristine nature of the fruit. Every step of the win making process at the house is artful, right down to the precision of the dosage, which is unique for every disgorgement conducted in batches. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eJournalist review\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 33\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSome 20% of Billecart’s production is rosé (400,000 bottles), claimed to be the biggest proportion of rosé among Champagne’s larger houses (though Moët may have just caught up).

Not one identified it as a rosé. ‘When my grandfather began producing rosés in the early 1960s, most thought it a fanciful, artificial wine \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethat lacked purity,’ he recalls. ‘He persevered, convinced it would have its place.

They champion the use of the meunier grape, which is often a added to other cuvees without fanfare in other houses. The absolutely pristine wine making facilities located in Mareuil-Sur-Ay are overseen by multiple generations of the family, as well as Chief Winemaker Francois Domi. The house purposely ferments at a lower temperature, lengthening the ferment to weeks and not days as can be standard in champagne, which helps capture the pristine nature of the fruit. Every step of the win making process at the house is artful, right down to the precision of the dosage, which is unique for every disgorgement conducted in batches. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eJournalist review\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 33\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSome 20% of Billecart’s production is rosé (400,000 bottles), claimed to be the biggest proportion of rosé among Champagne’s larger houses (though Moët may have just caught up).
