In a world mostly ruled by men, women have over the centuries left their mark on their disciplines. Fiercely determined, with clear and often innovative ideas, they have fought their battles and made their voices heard. This is true of great national figures such as Simone Weil, Marie Curie and Georges Sand in the fields of politics, science and the arts, but also in a lighter register, that of bubbles and rhinestones. Such is the case of the Champagne widows, who have defined the broad outlines of this particular appellation in the world of champagne with astonishing acuity, and in particular the Champagne Widow Veuve Clicquot.
