About Vignoble Ollivier Cottenceau
Located in the commune of Maisdon-sur-Sèvre, the La Grenaudière estate covers an area of 30 hectares, built up and passed down through successive generations of winegrowers since the 17th century. The most recent transfer placed the estate in the expert hands of the brothers Guy and Jean-Luc.
Guy focuses on the vineyard and the viticultural aspects of the estate, while Jean-Luc is responsible for marketing and overall business management. Although their parents remain involved and their experience continues to play a valuable role within the company, the new generation is taking on increasing responsibility, actively shaping the future of the estate.
Since 2025, the management of the company has officially been handed over to their daughter Mathilde, ensuring that the family tradition continues in a new and dynamic way.
