With vineyards across many of the premium areas of Champagne this house has the ability to source the perfect grapes for the perfect cuvee. Maurice, the son of Pol had a particular love for the richness of the Pinot Noir grape, this was a passion he shared with Sir Winston Churchill a well-known devotee of the house.
Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame

A little over 200 years later the house of Veuve Clicquot has many strong relationships with growers and vineyard owners all over Champagne.
