Francis Orban

He was a genuine trailblazer, and the first to install a press in Leuvrigny, a small village in the heart of the Vallée de la Marne, in the charming Vallée du Flagot. Léopold Orban began producing champagne, and his experiences were a great inspiration to his son, Gaëtan.

Gaëtan devoted himself to developing the commercial side of the business and encouraging production throughout the post-war period known in France as the 30 Glorieuses! He spent his time publicising the brand, masterfully managing the commercial business to make sure that the 40,000 bottles he produced all had buyers.

At the same time, he also built the cellar, vat room, and the house where Francis and his family live today, all with his own hands. This force of nature was still ploughing at the age of 70 and welcoming visitors at almost 90!
