Heroes of the vine
Within the steep slopes of the Aosta Valley, Grosjean Vins cultivates their vineyards with the utmost care and dedication. The location of the winery has earned acclaim as a heroic viticulture endeavour, based on the high altitudes, remote working areas and cooler alpine climate. With other presenting challenges like climate change and drought, this collectively imparts a distinctive character to their collection of wines.
Using advanced irrigation techniques, Grosjean ensures that water and nutrients are used efficiently, preserving the natural vitality of the land. Cultivation in this region is no easy feat, and is a testament to the family's commitment to producing exceptional, natural wines that truly express the terroir.
"We aren’t just producers, we live for wine…"
The Grosjean family's roots trace back to the 16th century, when they settled in the Aosta Valley and began cultivating the land. Fast forward to 1968, when Dauphin Grosjean bottled his first Ciliegiolo wine, sparking the entrepreneurial spirit that would transform the family’s winemaking legacy. Over the years, Dauphin's five sons took on roles within the vineyard and winery, helping to expand and improve their operations.
In recent years, the third generation have taken to the helm. The Grosjean family has always believed in respecting nature, a principle evident in their early avoidance of pesticides and their commitment to organic certification, achieved in 2011. Every bottle from Grosjean Vins is not just a product; it’s a piece of their enduring legacy of passion, from each generation.
