About 50-60% reserve wines being used, and these have come from magnums.

They still have their own in-house cooper who makes and manages their stock of some 3,500 barrels! That equates to about 1 million bottles being fermented in barrel - that is the largest (along with Krug) of any other producer in the region.

These major breakthroughs as well as her entrepreneurship spirit makes her one of the greatest businesswomen of her century. During the Napoleonic Wars, she played a vital role in establishing her champagne as a favoured drink of high society and nobility, selling her champagne to Imperial Russia.

Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin (Veuve Clicquot) took over the business in 1805, creating the first vintage champagne in 1810, inventing the first riddling table process in 1816 and making the first rose d'assemblage in 1818. These major breakthroughs as well as her entrepreneurship spirit makes her one of the greatest businesswomen of her century. During the Napoleonic Wars, she played a vital role in establishing her champagne as a favoured drink of high society and nobility, selling her champagne to Imperial Russia. The company was purchased in 1986 by Louis-Vuitton and continues to expand worldwide, as one of the top-selling champagnes in the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Suggestion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSquab or Seared Pigeon with cherry reduction, herbed potatoes and crunchy green beans to pick up some of the herbal edges in the wine.

Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin (Veuve Clicquot) took over the business in 1805, creating the first vintage champagne in 1810, inventing the first riddling table process in 1816 and making the first rose d'assemblage in 1818. These major breakthroughs as well as her entrepreneurship spirit makes her one of the greatest businesswomen of her century. During the Napoleonic Wars, she played a vital role in establishing her champagne as a favoured drink of high society and nobility, selling her champagne to Imperial Russia. The company was purchased in 1986 by Louis-Vuitton and continues to expand worldwide, as one of the top-selling champagnes in the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Suggestion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for a special occasion - wedding anniversary, birthday, promotion, so we'd probably pair it with a refined dinner.
