Our Story

Pierre Mayeul is an artful association of three wine experts who are collectively passionate about Burgundy and have extensive experience with the wines of Burgundy. The partners include Ludivine Griveau, winemaker of the legendary Hospices de Beaune, who is also the Hospice’s first female winemaker in their 160-year history of winemaking. Matthieu Bouchard of the Bouchard Pere et Fils family and Frederique Hirault. The trio worked together in winemaking, viticulture and marketing previously at the Chateau de Corton. Pierre Mayeul produces wines from their own vineyards as well as vineyards that they supervise.
