Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2025 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
The brand with the red cord—one of the most famous in the world—has been part of the Pernod-Ricard group since 2005. It offers a complete and delicious classic lineup, as well as a magnificent range dedicated to true connoisseurs, RSRV, which features four exciting cuvées: the famous Mumm-de-Cramant, a Blanc de Blancs of dazzling finesse; its Pinot Noir counterpart, a Blanc de Noirs; an intense and distinguished rosé named Foujita; and a blended cuvée aged longer in the cellar. Added to this brilliant lineup is a remarkable interpretation of the legendary Lalou cuvée. All of these wines are well worth rediscovering. Great houses are timeless, and Mumm is no exception. Numerous changes have now enabled it to commit even more fully to the path of excellence.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated Estate (2025 Guide) Award-Winning Wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)
About the estate:
Like other major Champagne houses, Mumm has German origins; it was founded in 1827 by the three Mumm brothers—Jacobus, Gottlieb, and Philipp—sons of a Cologne merchant. Georges-Hermann Mumm, the founder’s grandson, gave the company his initials and, in 1875, launched the Cordon Rouge, a nod to the Legion of Honor. The business remained in the family until 1914, when the war led to its being placed under receivership due to the German nationality of its owners. With 218 hectares of its own vineyards, the company has been one of the Pernod-Ricard group’s flagship Champagne houses since 2005. Laurent Fresnet, its cellar master, carries on the house style, which emphasizes Pinot Noir.
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated Estate (2025 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the estate:
Champagne’s fourth-largest brand by volume is regaining consistency with the goal of increasing those volumes. It is not in the tradition of the Pernod-Ricard Group—which has owned the brand since 2005—to capitalize on the elitism of its brands. Mumm is moving upmarket without alienating the general public through its pricing strategy. The RSRV range, initially reserved for a “circle of friends” of the house, is now open to the public and showcases the best the house has to offer through various styles: blanc de blancs, blancs de noirs, rosé, and now Cuvée Lalou. Mumm is not included in this year’s guide: its entry-level offerings fall short, and its top-tier cuvées are far from reaching the pinnacle of excellence.

Always very consistent in terms of quality—well done! Although I do find that it tends to be a little too fruity... but that's just its style...
