If ever there were a bottle for celebrating, it’s this first-ever magnum from Adrien Redon. Made with 100 percent 2015 chardonnay from a single parcel and bottled in 2017, the limited edition Un R de Folie is an ode to the preciousness of family. While the Champagne itself is a Redon labor of love, its label features original artwork by Adrien’s mother, Pascale. The large format bottle also includes a blown-glass crystal medallion created by the youngest Redon and master glassblower, Valentin.

*Only 328 bottles made.

See: Muted yellow with glints of shimmering chartreuse. Soft, slow effervescence with delicate beads that rise to a light, frothy mousse. 

Smell: A relatively mature nose, both elegant and complex, which suggests that it will evolve with aeration. Citrus zest, orchard fruit and vanilla bean followed by 2015’s signature hint of baked biscuits and wet, fallen foliage.

Taste: Green Anjou pear, clotted cream and the warmth and richness of baking spices. In the finish, damp mineral notes, chalk dust and vegetal flavors of the 2015 harvest shine through with a long, lingering mouthfeel.

Pair: Pop this larger-than-life beauty for a super special celebration. Pour it with a decadent starter of oysters rockefeller and shrimp cocktail or a delicate fritto misto spread with tartar sauce and a squeeze of lemon. Then, roll right into a dinner of handmade pasta with crispy pancetta, shaved Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh black pepper. Serve a light salad with hazelnuts and tarragon vinaigrette if you must. Finally, bring out the goat cheese with a honey drizzle for dessert.

Celebrate: Your big weekend is finally here, but before you get swept away in the joyous sea of activity, you’re kicking off the celebration with an intimate gathering of your nearest and dearest. There are oohs and ahhs as the perfectly chilled magnums arrive at the table followed by cheers when you and your guests hear those signature pops. The party has begun!

Region: Montagne de Reims
Vintage: 100% 2017
Varietal: 100% chardonnay

The Redon family has been tending vines and making Champagne in the village of Trépail since 1982. After two decades as vigneron, Pascal Redon and his wife, Pascale, passed the estate to their eldest sons, Adrien and Hugo. With Hugo’s behind-the-scenes help in the vineyard and in the production house, head vigneron Adrien crafts his own unique style of Champagne. His low-dosage cuvées highlight the extraordinary chardonnay grapes born of the area’s beautiful chalky soil.

We Care Deeply About Your Grower Champagne.

Select “pick up” during check out, and we’ll safely store your bubbles in our temperature-controlled cave until you can collect them. Once we notify you that your order is ready, pop by at your convenience to pick it up and enjoy a splash. Or, if you prefer, give us a call, and we’ll bring it to you curbside.

Our new compostable, insulated packaging keeps your Champagne safe from breakage and at a constant temperature from our cave to you. Even so, we monitor the weather where you are, and if we feel that extreme heat or cold may affect the quality of your bubbles, we’ll be in touch to offer you options.

  • Can you provide recommendations?

    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! In our online bottle shop, you’ll discover an assortment of beautifully curated bundles and gift sets. If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, call or email us, and we’d be happy to help you navigate our inventory of delicious bubbles.

  • Do I have to be a club member to shop bottles?

    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?

    Damp, wet cardboard? That’s not on the tasting note! Cork taint is the worst, but all fatcork Champagnes use natural cork closures, so it does happen on the rare occasion. 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.
