History
Moillard-Grivot is a prestigious name in Bourgogne wine, a specialist in the appellations of the Côte de Nuits, with a history dating back to the 19th century. "Moillard-Grivot" brand was founded in 1848 with the marriage of Symphorien Moillard and Marguerite Grivot, the owner of a wine estate. The House experienced its first real boom after the meeting between Symphorien Moillard and a Belgian notary who, fascinated by these wines, wanted to extend the distribution network to include his own country, thus marking the beginning of the wine merchant side of the business.
Since it was founded in Nuits-Saint-Georges in the heart of the Côte de Nuits in Bourgogne, Moillard-Grivot has been making wines of rare finesse and elegance. The company's expertise is also recognised in its production of exceptional Crémants de Bourgogne.
