Champagne Baron Fuente Grande Reserve Brut

What a full-bodied champagne! This Grande Reserve Brut has undergone extended aging in Baron Fuente's cellars. At least five years, to be precise. During this extended period, it develops a very full and complex character. The grape blend is also slightly different from that of the regular brut; for this Grande Reserve, 60 percent Pinot Meunier, 30 percent Chardonnay, and 10 percent Pinot Noir are used. We also buy this variety in bulk, allowing us to achieve a very competitive price, which we gladly pass on to our customers, as for this price range, it is truly outstanding.

The vineyards of Baron Fuente

Baron Fuenté was founded in 1967 by Gabriel Baron and his Spanish wife, Dolores Fuentes. At the time, they started with just one hectare of vineyards, a gift from Gabriel's father in honor of their wedding. Today, the Champagne house owns fifty hectares of vineyards. The vineyards are located in the commune of Charly-sur-Marne and occupy the region's best plots, nestled on the slopes overlooking the Marne River. The vineyards are planted with the traditional grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay.
