Sounds wonderful! Also, last year I read a great book on the story of the Veuve Clicquot and just loved it. It was a fascinating read on her life and times as well as a history of champagne. If you like that sort of book, and you haven't run across it, it's "The Widow Clicquot" by Tilar Mazzeo. Extraordinarily well researched, I thought.
