The contact line is subject to a confining quadratic well, provided by gravity.\n  From the second cumulant of the height fluctuations, we measure the renormalized disorder correlator Delta(u), predicted by the Functional RG theory to attain a fixed point, as soon as the capillary length is large compared to the Larkin length set by the microscopic disorder.
