The Producer

Located on the district of Maisdon-sur-Sèvre, Grenaudière Vineyard stretches on 28 hectares, inherited from several generations of vine-growers. Handed down from father to son since the 17th century, the winery was managed by Jean-Luc and his brother Guy until 2022. Jean-Luc’s daughter Mathilde and her business partner Stéphane Cottenceau took over and found Vignoble Ollivier-Cottenceau. They’re both oenologist and have a back ground in winemaking since 15 years. Within a year they brought their footprint and launched three new products, including an Orange Wine, a Pet Nat and a dealcoholized wine.

The prized wine here is Muscadet and the grape of choice is Melon de Bourgogne.
