Champagne Fleury is located in Courteron, a village in the Aube known for its Kimmeridgian, clay and limestone soil and sunny Seine Valley slopes. Founded in 1895, the domaine has a rich history of innovation. After phylloxera destroyed Champagne’s vineyards in the late 19th century, in 1901, Emile Fleury was the first to help restore his  ravaged vineyards by grafting French pinot noir onto aphid-resistant rootstock. In 1929 during the economic crisis, instead of selling his grapes to the big houses, Emile’s son Robert Fleury began making his own Champagne. That bold leap of faith placed him among a group of  the first grower-producers in the Aube. In 1989, Jean-Pierre Fleury became the first grower to use such biodynamic practices as manual tilling and composting in his vineyards. By 1992, he had converted the entire 15-hectare estate to biodynamic.

Today, Jean-Pierre’s three children Jean-Sebastien, Morgane and Benoît Fleury continue the family tradition of experimentation and a love of their land. Jean-Sebastien created the domaine’s first sulfite-free wines. Benoît is looking at novel ways to cultivate the vines in a changing climate. And Morgane is promoting her family’s products at the jazz and Champagne bar she owns in Paris.

    We thought you’d never ask! Whether you’re choosing Champagne for yourself or a gift for someone else, fatcork celebration specialists have you covered! Need help pairing a bottle from your club allocation for your dinner party? We can help there too!

    No way José. All are welcome to purchase any of our delicious bubbles online or in person at the fatcork cave.

  • What do I do if my Champagne is corked?

Please let us know, and will happily replace the bottle. Before you throw it away, snap a photo of the back label and we can refer to the code for reference. Email it to info@fatcork.com along with the order number.

  • Can I return or exchange my bottles?

    We aim to please. Call or email us, so we can talk about what happened and how we can make things right.
