About Veuve Clicquot
Since its creation in 1772, Veuve Clicquot played an instrumental role in establishing and evolving the champagne industry as we know it today. Located in Reims, France, Veuve Clicquot prides itself on using only the most distinct grapes reflecting Madame Clicquot's motto "only one quality, the finest." Now, more than 200 years later, Veuve Clicquot Champagne inspires the world to "Be Clicquot": modern, audacious and premium quality. These values, set forth by the ground-breaking and extraordinary Madame Clicquot and maintained by generations of Clicquot drinkers, promise a remarkable experience with each sip of Veuve Clicquot Champagne.

About Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach
Grand Marnier Raspberry Peach is the newest addition to world-renowned Grand Marnier, which was created in 1880 in France. This latest signature flavor is a blend of the natural flavors of succulent European raspberries and rare red peaches from the south of France, combined with Grand Marnier, made from exceptionally smooth cognac and wild tropical orange essence from the Caribbean. The result is an alluring and mixable spirit that is enjoyable on the rocks and in delicious cocktails.  When topped with champagne, it is an unexpected French twist on the classic Bellini.
