Extra Brut Millésime 2011

Didier-Ducos

$78

SEE: Radiant gold pearls, plump and frothy as they rise 

SMELL: A potpourri of dried apricots, wildflowers and your grandmother’s trunk full of silk scarves

TASTE: Hints of meringue, dried pear and brioche. Almond and honeycomb in the finish.

PAIR: Lay this bottle on its side for a few years to gain more complex aromas and flavors. If you can’t wait (trust us, we get it!), pop it now to complement soft cheeses and oysters Rockefeller or to balance out a bowl of shrimp cocktail.

Village: Saint-Martin d’Ablois

Region: Vallée de la Marne

Dosage:

Nestled in amongst the lush, rolling hills of the Vallée de la Marne, about 10 kilometers southwest of Epernay, you will find the commune of Saint-Martin d’Ablois. Husband-and-wife team Nicolas and Clotilde Didier live here with their family on Rue Julien-Ducos. They are the fourth generation to tend Didier-Ducos’ 8 hectares of vineyards, which face south on smooth, sloping hillsides replete with limestone and clay-rich soil. Nicolas and Clotilde’s signature low dosage cuvées maintain delicacy and viridity due to the prime location of their vineyards.

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.

Out of town? On the run? Use the "Special Requests" field in your shopping cart or email us at info@fatcork.comto let us know. We’ll work with you to get the timing just right.

  • 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.
