Anecdotes from the estate “One of our oldest importers supplies our Champagne for every Ariane rocket launch. I really like this rocket metaphor; it perfectly captures the dynamism of our family.” A brief history of the estate In 1979, Lulu bequeathed 30 ares of vineyards to his son, Jean-Michel Gremillet. He has been expanding the estate ever since. His dream of building a Champagne House continues with the successive arrivals of his son Jean-Christophe, cellar master, his daughter Anne, in charge of marketing, and their respective spouses. A whole family united around a single project. The pride of the estate What do an Ariane rocket launch in Kourou and a reception at an embassy have in common? Maison Gremillet! A long-standing supplier to embassies and consulates worldwide for forty years, the house was founded by Jean-Michel Gremillet, who inherited a small plot of vineyards from his mother.
