Widow Clicquot: The Untold Story Behind the Iconic Champagne House

268 Views Posted on: 06/19/2025
 

Discover the Legacy of Veuve Clicquot in The Widow Clicquot

The Widow Clicquot is a book all about the champagne house we all know and love: Veuve Clicquot. With a focus on the young widow who started it all, it's a tale of celebrity and history which is completely captivating, not least because of the trials and tribulations which filled those early days.

From Tragedy to Triumph: The Rise of Veuve Clicquot


But more than that, as the description on Bid Or Buy states, it's about a woman fighting her way to the top through a sea of political and cultural adversity.

Why The Widow Clicquot Is Essential Reading for Wine Enthusiasts


At 288 pages this isn't an enormous book. But it's certainly a must-have for anyone seriously looking to delve into the unique history of champagne.
