Veuve du Vernay sparkling wine has an intimate link to the history of French sparkling wine. Mr. Jean Eugène Charmat, the French scientist, who in 1907 invented the cuve close (“sealed vats”) method of producing fine sparkling wine which has since been adopted worldwide, had a high regard for a widow in the village of Vernay who helped him to start his business.
