Georges Hermann Mumm champagne is one of the most famous and trendy. They appear to be a fun but corporate company and the tour is slick and informative with a great collection of museum pieces.

The G H Mumm’s path to international success is derived from the visionary development that also went into the wine. Georges Hermann brought a philosophy of excellence and innovation to the company that still guides our champagne production, nearly 200 years later. He is also responsible for creating the famous red ribbon, a worldwide symbol of quality since 1876. A marketing trick that worked well. The guided tour of the cellars is followed by a tasting of Mumm Cordon Rouge, the symbolic Mumm champagne. It is fantastic. The site is in Reims, near the market and a few good bars and restaurants that you will pass walking back into the town.

Planning is required. It is best to both book your tours in advance.

Whilst Doris Visits is known as an ocean cruise website, the Champagne cruise now sits in our new and growing river cruise section.
