Maison Mumm RSRV Blanc de Blancs 2015
Maison Mumm RSRV Blanc de Blancs 2015
Since 1838, Maison Mumm's outstanding champagnes have been exclusively enjoyed by a select group of insiders. These champagnes perfectly capture the exceptional quality of their terroir and the mastery of their craft. Continuing this rich tradition, the RSRV collection stands alone as the sole assortment of five cuvées, all sourced from 100% Grand Cru vineyards. Among them, RSRV Blanc de Blancs shines as a champagne known for its impeccable clarity, invigorating liveliness, and delicate effervescence.
This exceptional champagne is crafted specifically with Chardonnay from Cramant, known as "chalk mount" in the Côte des Blancs. These vineyards include historic plots that were acquired by Maison Mumm back in 1882. The exceptional terroir of this Grand Cru region provides optimal climatic conditions and chalky soil that beautifully accentuate the mineral and delicate flavors of Chardonnay. In the latest release of RSRV Blanc de Blancs 2015, a relatively lower pressure of 4.5 bars (compared to the typical 6 bars in other champagnes) allows the wine to fully showcase its minerality and subtle effervescence. Following a minimum of three years of aging in the cellars and a light dosage of 6 grams per litre, this limited-production 100% Grand Cru cuvée is now ready to be savoured. The bottle also has a distinctive narrow neck allowing the wine to develop more slowly for a longer preservation.
With a captivating appearance, this champagne delights the eyes with its glistening and radiant demeanor, adorned with delicate shades of green and pale yellow. The effervescence is mesmerizing, as ethereal and fine bubbles gracefully dance in the glass. As the bouquet unfolds, the nose is greeted by a symphony of enticing aromas. Zesty citrus notes take centre stage, with the invigorating scents of lemon and grapefruit perfuming the air. The fragrance of a freshly baked lemon meringue tart fills the senses, while the sweetness of luscious white peaches adds an irresistible allure. Upon the first sip, the palate is awakened by an incisive and invigorating sensation. The wine reveals its remarkable freshness and vitality, leaving a distinct impression of crispness that enlivens the taste buds. The mineral character shines through, adding depth and complexity to each sip. The journey reaches its climax with a long and captivating finish, a harmonious combination of flavors that lingers on, enchanting and satisfying the senses with its graceful presence.
Whether it's a celebratory occasion or an intimate gathering, RSRV Blanc de Blancs brings an extraordinary touch to the dining table, enhancing the flavors of wide range of cuisine, particularly pork, rich fish, shellfish and mild cheeses. Its ability to harmonize and elevate the culinary experience makes it a versatile and captivating choice for discerning wine enthusiasts and gastronomes alike.
