Champagne Christophe Baron- Marne Valley
 


“With his philosophy of “single vineyard, single vintage, single grape and no dosage”, Baron aims to create four unique and distinctive Champagnes from each of his vineyards – in magnum only.”- Skurnik Imports

It’s no secret that we’ve long adored Christophe Baron’s wines… and we’re not alone! This French born virtuoso helped put The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater on the map. Not satisfied with crafting some of the most famous and sought-after wines in Walla Walla for roughly twenty years, Christophe returned to his roots in the Marne Valley to craft these exquisite Champagnes from his family’s Pinot Meunier vines.

Great Wines, Goodfellow

“Marcus Goodfellow is sourcing fruit from some of the finest vineyards in Willamette… dry farmed and from old vineyards planted to an array of clones. We visited the old, gnarled vines at Durant vineyard in Dundee Hills, planted with Pinot Noir in 1973 and with Chardonnay in 1993, and the Whistling Ridge Vineyard in Ribbon Ridge, planted in 1990. ‘Old vines are still the trump card,’ he says. ‘The vines situate themselves to the site. The old vines give wines that are ethereal, elegant, layered and don’t speak too loud.’
