Everything about Mumm totally explained
Mumm, situated in
Reims in northern France, is one of the largest
champagne producers worldwide. It was founded by three brothers, Jacobus, Gottlieb and Phillip Mumm,
German winemakers from the
Rhine valley and
G. Heuser and
Friedrich Giesler on March 1,
1827 as
P. A. Mumm Giesler et C°. P.A. stood for the initials of Mumm senior (Peter Arnold Mumm), a successful wine merchant from
Solingen. Mumm's label is famous for its red ribbon (
Cordon Rouge) which is purportedly resembling the French
Grand Cordon of the Légion d'Honneur.
The French confiscated all of the Mumm's property, although they'd lived in Champagne for almost a century before
World War I, because they'd never bothered to become French citizens.
Mumm is the
champagne which is sprayed by successful drivers on the podium after
Formula 1 Grands Prix.
