Portrait de Marielle Grivot - Domaine Grivot

Marielle Grivot

She brings balance and is the cornerstone of the estate. She manages the business side and irons out any administrative issues that arise, because, as we all know, businesses also require paperwork, patience and discipline.
She was Etienne’s balance when the young winemaker set out on his mission to create wines that were less austere and closed. She had full confidence in his expertise.

Go-to wine

Every year has its own temperament. An appellation often stands out, but it’s not always the same one; it depends on the vintage.

Favourite time of year

The autumn when the grapes are in vats, it’s time for the vinification process and of course the stunning colours of the vines.

The Terrace

A special place: The Terrace

A new light on wines that are more accessible where the charm of these vintages can be appreciated. A light which the estate’s buildings have captured with their large bay windows. The terrace is perched at the very top and offers tastings from every angle. A new centrepiece in the form of a shop will offer the perfect space for sharing special moments.

Background

She didn’t take much persuading to leave the Côte de Beaune where she was born, for the Côte de Nuits where she has lived for forty years. She had already had her eye on the vines and simply made the move from Savigny to Vosne.

A special memory

Summer 2023, the year of the heatwave, in late August it was still 36 degrees at 6:30pm and we were afraid it would hail, but instead a light rain arrived, finally cooling down the leaves and grapes. We harvested at the beginning of September. We knew to hold out. It was a magnificent vintage.
