Mumm Napa Prestige Cuvée, Napa Valley, California, United States: Mumm Napa Prestige Cuvée is a refined and elegant sparkling wine with enticing aromas of green apple, Citrus blossom and pear, layered with notes of toasted brioche and almond. The palate is medium-bodied, dry and finely textured, offering a creamy mousse and vibrant acidity that lead to a crisp, lingering finish at 12.5% alcohol. Serve it well-chilled to let its bright fruit and delicate complexity shine. Fascinating fact: Mumm Napa uses a second fermentation in bottle following the traditional Champagne method, and the Prestige Cuvée reflects Napa’s sun-kissed fruit with a sophisticated, food-friendly style. Pair it with fresh oysters on the half shell, where the wine’s vibrant acidity complements the briny sweetness. Or enjoy it with chicken piccata, where its zesty citrus notes brighten and balance the dish. Drink: 2025-2027. 217273  12.50% D 750 mL  $29.70 Score: 92/100.
