The Widow Cliquot by Tilar J. Mazzeo
Star Rating: ★★★★★
The Widow Clicquot is an incredible story that many people don't know about the famous champagne house. Rooted in the time of the French Revolution, we learn about a secret wedding and an untimely death, which leads our leading lady to continue running Veuve Clicquot, which literally translates to Widow Clicquot. It's right there on the brand, and yet this story has only recently been documented and shared. It should be made into a movie. The tales about hiding champagne during the war, competing against the Moët house, and so much more are rich in detail.
