G.H.MUMM Cordon Rouge Magnum: A Tribute to Royalty

Champagne G.H.MUMM is collaborating with award winning calligrapher, Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust (QEST) scholar, and Royal Warrant holder Sally Mangum, to create a bespoke label honouring the 60th Anniversary of the Coronation of Her Majesty The Queen. An extremely limited number of G.H.MUMM Cordon Rouge N.V. Magnums have been created, one of which will be gifted to Queen Elizabeth herself during the Royal Coronation Festival, while the remainder will be auctioned off in support of QEST. G.H.MUMM was named as an official supplier of champagne to British Royalty in 1904 and first gained pride of place at the Derby Day banquet held in Buckingham Palace that same year. To thisday, G.H.MUMM remains an official supplier of champagne to HM The Queen, as evidenced by the Royal Warrant decorating the neck of every bottle.

“Our House has supported the British Monarchy for more than a century and is well-known as the champagne of celebrations. Making a limited edition magnum with a bespoke label for the coronation anniversary of HM The Queen was a natural choice for us.” – Hugues Le Marié, Regional Director Europe and Americas for G.H.MUMM

G.H.MUMM will also be supporting QEST at the reveal of the newly designed Summer House in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, which has been uniquely decorated by QEST scholars to honour the occasion. Originally from Maine, award winning calligrapher and QEST scholar Sally Magnum has lived in London since graduating from Mount Holyoake College, Massachusetts with a BA degree in History of Art. She was awarded a prestigious Queen Elizabeth Scholarship in 2007 to study Heraldic Art at Reigate School of Art and Design.

“Both our organisations uphold the traditions of craftsmanship and we are most honoured to be the benefactor of this celebratory champagne. It is a stunning bottle and Sally has done some tremendous calligraphy for the label, it will surely become a collector’s item for wine connoisseurs.” – Nick Farrow, President of QEST.

An extremely limited number of G.H.MUMM Cordon Rouge N.V. Magnums will be available at auction with proceeds donated to QEST.
