“Bennett impresses, first scene to last. There’s steel beneath her poker face as the Widow Clicquot faces down the patriarchal hierarchy of “management” styles of the nobles/peasants (even post-Revolution) age, taking ownership of that which will distinguish her as a businesswoman, a simple “ability to listen” to the best ideas in the vineyards, in the grottos, and in the bottling and selling.” – Movie Nation

After her husband’s untimely death, Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin Clicquot flouts convention by assuming the reins of the fledgling wine business they had nurtured together. Steering the company through dizzying political and financial reversals, she defies her critics and revolutionizes the champagne industry to become one of the world’s first great businesswomen.
