Madame Clicquot: History’s Champagne Pioneer

If you’ve ever popped open a bottle of champagne, you likely have one enterprising woman to thank, an entrepreneur who battled immense odds to build a legacy that would thrive for centuries to come. On this very special episode, sponsored by Veuve Clicquot, Dan steps back in time to investigate the remarkable life of a young, spirited widow in early-19th-century France through the eyes of designers, historians, winemakers, and experts. It’s a story that not only informs one of life’s great luxuries we take for granted today, but an inspiring tale about innovation, perseverance, and hope.
