After much of a wait, the French-based company announced its new Mumm Grand Cordon Stellar vintage, a bubbly designed with space exploration in mind. The new space champagne is the outcome of a three-year long partnership with a space design agency Spade. Didier Mariotti, Mumm’s cellar master explained, “Because of zero gravity the liquid instantly coats the entire inside of the mouth, magnifying the taste sensations. There’s less fizziness and more roundness and generosity.” This high-tech bottle uses the Champagne’s carbon dioxide to expel the wine into a ring-shaped frame, where it is focused into droplet of bubbles.
