Born into a family of bankers and textile merchants, Philippe Clicquot owned vineyards and founded a wine merchant business under the name Clicquot in 1772. His ambition was to "cross the borders". The first shipment of Clicquot champagne was sent to Venice.
In 1805 Madame Clicquot, a young widow of 27, took over the reins and never ceased to surprise. In 1810 she produced the first vintage. It was also she who invented the stirring table, which made it possible to clarify the wine and which was then adopted by the other Champagne Houses.
In 1877, the first yellow label appeared and became famous all over the world!
