Rosé Premier Cru Brut

Petit Le Brun et Fils

$85

This rosé comes from Véronique’s family Grand Cru vineyards in Verzenay. The vignerons blend still red wine that they produce with their Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru to create a rosé d’assemblage. Because not all of the grapes they use to make the blend are from the same Grand Cru vineyards, Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée rules classify this as Premier Cru. It is bottled and aged on the lees for 24-36 months.

See: Crushed red berries with copper reflections

Smell: Fresh strawberry and cherry followed by wet leaves and wild mushrooms

Taste: Ripe red fruits and wet limestone

Pair: This Champagne can hold its own at any table. Bright but structured, it will complement a delicate salad and provide balance to a juicy T-bone. 

Celebrate: After an entire day of inspecting each and every item of clothing you own and asking yourself if it sparks joy, you filled five large bags and dropped them off at the local shelter. Your gently used denim, sweaters, scarves and sneakers are on their way to people who can use them, and you’ve made a pledge to keep your closet clean.

Each armed with a distinguished winemaking lineage, husband-and-wife team Richard Petit and Véronique Bajan established the Petit Le Brun Champagne brand in 1964 and have since been producing classic-style cuvées at their domaine in Avize. Built in 1723 for a countess, the estate sits 12 meters above chalk caves that are 400 meters long. Vine roots poke through the ceilings of their caves — a testament to centuries of winemaking on the estate’s storied grounds. In their 4 hectares of chardonnay vineyards, Richard and Véronique are committed to using  products and methods approved by the Haute Valeur Environnementale and the Agriculture Durable & Bio.

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.
