Hosted by Searcys Head of Champagne, Martin Dibben, who will tell the history of Charles Heidsieck, affectionately known as "Champagne Charlie," who was a pioneer who popularised champagne in America. In 1852, he embarked on a journey to the United States, where his charm and marketing prowess earned him the nickname. Despite facing challenges, including imprisonment during the Civil War under suspicion of being a spy, his determination and resilience helped him make a remarkable comeback. He eventually made his fortune when he was given deeds to land in Denver, which later became highly valuable. This prestigious house continues to produce some of the finest champagnes, celebrated worldwide for their elegance and quality.
