Subsequently, the owner died and left his wife a rather impressive business, which covered not only winemaking. However, the widow of Clico decided to concentrate on the production of wine and did not lose. Over time, Veuve Clicquot's widow began to serve Champagne at the courts of various European monarchs. It is worth noting that the famous champagne fell on the territory of the Russian Empire during the war with Napoleon.

In addition, as a visionary businessman, the widow of Clico began to buy the best crewe vineyards in the region. Clico's widow died in the middle of the 19th century, and champagne named after this strong-willed and strong Frenchwoman went down in world history as a true masterpiece of winemaking.
