The Story of the Family
The Champagne Haton story began in 1610 under the reign of Louis XIII, when François Haton acquired the first parcels in Damery. In 1928, Octave Haton brought a new impetus to the family business when he began vinifying his own champagnes. The Haton family has always been proud of its roots in Champagne, and can trace its history back almost four centuries. Along with that pride of the past, it is also firmly focused on the future.
Haton produces a range of assertive champagnes with timeless style. Champagnes full of meaning that express real emotion. Essential cuvées that promise intense sharing experiences. This unique and inimitable style, specific to Haton champagnes, unfurls in a kaleidoscope of nuances, allowing each cuvée to express a distinct personality.
Haton tends 60 hectares of vines (including 45 hectares of its own), mainly spread over six villages in the Vallée de la Marne:Damery, Hautvillers (Premier Cru), Cumières (Premier Cru), Boursault, Fleury la Rivière, Vauciennes, and Cuchery.
While mastering the art of blending is essential in Champagne, at Haton the team applies the same rule to the art of patience, the art of time. Time for the aromas settle in and express themselves, time to allow the effervescence to mature. In search of the perfect balance, Jean-Noël and Sébastien place particular importance on mastering their wines’ ageing process.
