About
Founded in 1960 by Robert Charmat, the son of scientist, Eugene Charmat who patented the Charmat Method of producing sparkling wines. He named his sparkling wines for a widow in Vernay who helped his father during his early winemaking days. Veuve in French means widow.
Veuve du Vernay is produced by Patriarche, a leading wine producer in France founded in 1780 in Beaune, the heart of Burgundy, where they focus on two areas of winemaking, Burgundy appellation wines and fine sparkling wines.
The grapes come from the most beautiful vineyards, and the base wines are carefully chosen and assembled before the liqueur de tirage is added triggering the second fermentation and foam creation.

What's in a name?
This isn't the first time - and it certainly won't be the last time - we chat about the weird names that some items of clothing have. We've mentioned things like jumpers and sweaters, and questioned why they're called those things, when they certainly don't jump or sweat, respectively. Don't even get us started on clothes like clam diggers and pedal pushers. Seriously, who digs for clams? Where is this beach where people are doing so?
When it comes to shoes, the names get a little simpler. Like, you get hiking boots (for hiking), running shoes (for running) and tennis shoes (do we need to say it?) Of course, you then get sneakers, and we simply can't help but wonder where they're sneaking to? Well, if they're anything like our deal on these Japan S sneakers from ASICS, hopefully they'll be sneaking into your cart ASAP!
