HistoryIn 1979 In The French Champagne house of G.H. Mumm launched Project Lafayette--a covert operation to identify ideal winegrowing areas in America. Their secret agent? None other than top Mumm winemaker Guy Devaux, who roamed the country incognito, buying grapes, tasting wines, and staking out prime spots for Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Gris--the main varietals in sparkling wine. When Devaux sampled grapes from the fog-shrouded Carneros region at the south end of Napa Valley, he knew the long, cool growing season was behind their vibrant fruit expression and bright acidity. He knew he'd discovered the perfect spot to source sparkling wine. Mumm Cuvee Napa was founded in 1986, and today we remain the only sparkling wine house with the Napa Valley appellation on every label. We embrace our centuries-long French heritage with methode traditionelle, the winemaking style of Champagne, and we cultivate the distinctive terroir of Napa Valley.
