The Baron family has owned and cultivated land in Champagne since the 17th century. Upon his marriage in 1961 to Dolores Fuenté, Gabriel Baron was given by his father 1 hectare of vineyard. In 1967, as a symbol of their union, Gabriel and Dolores named their brand new company: Champagne Baron-Fuenté. Today, the domaine spreads over 38 hectares of vineyards near the village of Charly-sur-Marne, on the western side of the Marne river valley. The style of the Champagne is dominated by Pinot Meunier, bringing fruit and delicacy to the cuvées. Smaller proportions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir bring finesse and strength to the blend.
