520    Veuve Clicquot champagne epitomizes glamour, style, and 
       luxury. But who was this young widow-the Veuve Clicquot-
       whose champagne sparkled at the courts of France, Britain,
       and Russia, and how did she rise to celebrity and 
       fortune?In The Widow Clicquot, Tilar J. Mazzeo brings to 
       life for the first time the fascinating woman behind the 
       iconic yellow label: Barbe-Nicole Clicquot Ponsardin. A 
       young witness to the dramatic events of the French 
       Revolution and a new widow during the chaotic years of the
       Napoleonic Wars, Barbe-Nicole defied convention by 
       assuming-after her husband's death-the reins of the 
       fledgling wine business they had nurtured. Steering the 
       company through dizzying political and financial reversals,
       she became one of the world's first great businesswomen 
       and one of the richest women of her time.Although the 
       Widow Clicquot is still a legend in her native France, her
       story has never been told in all its richness-until now. 
       Painstakingly researched and elegantly written, The Widow 
       Clicquot provides a glimpse into the life of a woman who 
       arranged clandestine and perilous champagne deliveries to 
       Russia one day and entertained Napoleon and Josephine 
       Bonaparte on another. She was a daring and determined 
       entrepreneur, a bold risk taker, and an audacious and 
       intelligent woman who took control of her own destiny when
       fate left her on the brink of financial ruin. Her legacy 
       lives on today, not simply through the famous product that
       still bears her name, but now through Mazzeo's finely 
       crafted book. As much a fascinating journey through the 
       process of making this temperamental wine as a biography 
       of a uniquely tempered woman, The Widow Clicquot is 
       utterly intoxicating.
