Meet the Winemaker

Maison Nicolas Morin | Nicolas Morin, Wine Merchant
Unlike many of his fellow vignerons, Nicolas Morin did not come from a family of wine growers. A former barrel-maker by profession, he worked in Burgundy estates for eight years as a crop manager and cellar manager, eventually holding positions of cellar manager or cellar master in South Africa and Australia in the southern hemisphere, Saint-Estèphe and Pauillac in Bordeaux in the north. He established his Maison in Nuits-Saint-Georges in 2014 as a négociant éleveur, buying grapes from organic winegrowers in the Côte d’Or and creating his organic wines according to his own exacting standards. Since 2019, he has acquired 3 hectares of vines in the biodynamic Burgundy appellation.
