Mumm Cordon Rouge has successfully sent its specially formulated champagne into space, and the bottle has safely returned to Earth. This ambitious project was developed over nine years in collaboration with space technology experts and France’s national space agency. It represents a fusion of oenological innovation and aerospace engineering.

Mumm Cordon Rouge’s champagne was transported in a custom-designed bottle featuring aerospace-grade materials and a zero-gravity pouring mechanism, while the liquid itself was carefully adjusted to account for the altered sensory perception experienced in microgravity. For collectors, the space-traveled champagne bottle represents a unique artifact at the intersection of viticulture and space exploration history.

This extravagant continues Mumm Cordon Rouge’s long tradition of exploration, dating back to early 20th-century polar expeditions, while establishing new possibilities for luxury consumption in space tourism and extended space missions.
