The Baron-Fuenté MILLÉSIME Champagne Brut 2016 is an elegant French vintage champagne produced by the family-run Champagne Baron-Fuenté in Charly-sur-Marne. The estate is situated in the renowned Vallée de la Marne, one of Champagne’s most significant wine-growing regions, and combines traditional champagne production with the long-standing expertise of a family-run business. The designation ‘Millésime 2016’ indicates a champagne whose grapes come exclusively from the specified harvest year. In contrast to non-vintage champagnes, where base wines from different harvests are blended together, a Millésime focuses on the individual characteristics of a single vintage. The protected designation of origin ‘Champagne AOC’ guarantees that the champagne is produced within the defined French wine-growing region in accordance with the applicable production regulations.

The Champagne Baron-Fuenté MILLÉSIME Brut 2016 is produced using the Méthode Traditionnelle, the classic bottle fermentation method. In this process, the second alcoholic fermentation takes place directly in the bottle before the champagne can continue to mature whilst on its lees. This traditional production method forms the basis for the development of complex vintage champagnes and is one of the key quality characteristics of Champagne. The designation ‘Brut’ refers to the dry flavour profile and makes the cuvée a versatile accompaniment for festive occasions and sophisticated menus. With an alcohol content of 12.5% in the 0.75 l bottle, the Champagne Baron-Fuenté Millésime 2016 is a special choice for connoisseurs of mature French sparkling wines. The 2016 vintage, the traditional bottle fermentation and its origins in the Vallée de la Marne give this vintage Champagne from Baron-Fuenté its unique status within the range.
