The World’s Best Champagnes History
Veuve Clicquot: “One Quality, the Finest”
Founded in 1772, Veuve Clicquot is synonymous with the art of living. The House style distinguishes itself through the dominance of Pinot Noir which gives strength, complexity and elegance to our wines. For over 250 years, Veuve Clicquot has been pushing the boundaries of champagne inspired by Madame Clicquot’s audacity, inventive spirit and societal commitment.
In an era when women were excluded from the business world entirely, our namesake — Madame Clicquot — dared to lead with passion and determination. Becoming the first woman to ever run a champagne house, her audacity and pioneering spirit led her to become known as The Great Lady of Champagne. The House continues to live up to that promise every day, with passion and excellence.
Moët & Chandon: An Embodiment of Excellence
Moët & Chandon was founded in 1743 by Claude Moët and elevated to international renown by his descendant, Jean-Rémy Moët, who dreamt of “sharing the effervescence of Champagne with the world.” From royal court to red carpet, Studio 54 to Grand Slams, Moët & Chandon has been bringing people together around thrilling, extraordinary moments. With the largest, most diverse vineyards in the region, the House offers a versatile selection of champagnes for every occasion and palate. For nearly three centuries, Moët & Chandon has been the champagne of choice to mark both significant events in history and personal celebrations, enhancing each toast with the spark of effervescence.
