Veuve Clicquot Champagne House
The Veuve Clicquot Champagne House is named after Madame Clicquot who
took over her
husband’s small Champagne business when he died, making her a widow at
the age of 27 (veuve is French for widow).
It was formed in 1805 in Reims and currently produces around 8 million
bottles a year from their 275 hectares of vineyards. Madame Clicquot
had a great aptitude for business and selected equally talented people
to work alongside her. Her original partner, Monsieur Bohn, was a
supreme and dedicated salesman who made great inroads into central and
eastern European markets allowing Madame Clicquot to stay at home and
supervise the running of the business.
At the time most Champagnes were cloudy and required decanting before
serving, Madame Clicquot invented a process in the making of wine
called remuage which left the product crystal clear. The remuage
process is still used in Champagne production today.
Fossier Roses de Reims (175g): Fossier's delightful pink
biscuits taste as good as the look, and they look simply stunning!
Produced in Reims, these are specially baked to enjoy with
Champagne.
Luxury Truffles: Handmade milk chocolate Champagne truffles,
presented in a gold box with a hand-tied satin ribbon (120g, approx
9 truffles). Our Truffles are created by the world
renowned Swiss Chocolatiers, Lessiters.
Since 1906 Lessiters have produced the finest chocolate, enjoyed by
connoisseurs and the most discerning individuals.
With their passion for chocolate and a dedication to quality that's
recognised throughout Europe and beyond, they are true artisans,
making unique, handmade
chocolates to original Swiss recipes, all with the finest, freshest
ingredients.
