The creator
Mon Millésime was created thanks to a pure passion for old
vintages. The owner of the company Philippe RENAUD, was introduced to
old vintages as a young man and decided to pursue a career in what
inspired him most.
With a family background in viticulture, a personal background
in business, incredible knowledge and formidable enthusiasm - along
with 5 years working at the prestigious Domaine CARILLON in
Puligny-Montrachet - Philippe is able to offer much more than a
conventional wine shop.
His aim is to share the hidden secrets of his beloved drink
and to do this he has developed two ranges of wines from all over
France: A selection of old and rare vintages and a unique range of
younger wines….
Old wines
Mon Millésime is an Aladdin's cave of rare and exciting
bottles. Whether you are searching for a particular year or hoping to
discover the mystery behind the old vintage legend we hope to have the
perfect bottle for you. We stock wines from all over France, from small
producers to the top names, Château Margaux, Château d'Yquem, Domaine
de la Romanée Conti… We work hard to ensure these bottles are sensibly
priced.
Most of our older bottles are bought up from personal cellars,
in which case we are able to check the storage conditions as well as
having the privilege of unearthing bottles that are simply impossible
to find elsewhere. Every bottle has a story to tell which only serves
to increase our interest and fuel our passion.
Young wines
Knowing the Burgundy region like the back of his hand has
allowed Philippe to source smaller producers with top quality wines,
while avoiding the high prices reached elsewhere. He will not stock a
younger wine unless he has tried and, more importantly been impressed
by the product. Every aspect of production is taken into account during
this selection process, from the vinification methods of the grower to
the quality of the wine.
In addition to these less well known and real value for money
wines, Philippe is proud to offer vintages from some of the most famous
producers in the world. From Armand ROUSSEAU to Domaine de la Romanée
Conti, the Mon Millésime selection has an unmistakeable touch of
class.
