SPECIFICITY : THE “BORDELAIS”

Our company (agency) developed a specific expertise in the Bordeaux area (region). We source 20 years of vintages from all the great Bordeaux appelations from the left-bank and the right-bank. In order to do this, we rely on several Bordeaux merchants, not just one, which allows us to offer the best price. And at a given supplier, to split the overall volume into almost as many references as desired.

THE AGENCY

3 generations, 40 years of expertise
A human-size team, close to their partners and customers.

PIERRE DE REYNIÈS

Epicurean at heart, he began his career at “Domaines qui montent”, the Parisian distribution platform of a group of French winegrowers.
He joins Champagne Laurent Perrier as a sales agent in 1994, then as manager of “prestige” customers until 2001.
An opportunity then presented itself for him to integrate Champagne DEUTZ as Paris Sales Director, where he remained until 2014, when he decided to join Pierre Gilles to create « Agence Chanlaire & Reyniès »

ANTOINE MENILLET

Originally from Champagne, Antoine joined “Repaire de Bacchus” where he was responsible for the management of a cellar from 2003 to 2011. These years allowed him to acquire solid knowledge about wines and various French wine regions. Then, tempted by the adventure “in the field”, he took over the Paris sales direction of Château de Malleret, a Haut Médoc cru, where he officiated until 2014. Since then, he has worked closely with the Agence Chanlaire & Reyniès.

PIERRE GILLES DE CHANLAIRE

He began his career in the company of Vieux Moustier, the 3rd largest producer of French sparkling wines at the time, where he managed several export zones and in particular Italy, a country in which he exported up to 1 million bottles per year while in position in another sparkling wine company. Then in 1976 he created a portfolio of commercial agent in Paris and its region, made up of Champagne DEUTZ and a few Bordeaux trading houses. Over the years, the sparkling wine business in Italy was abandoned to focus on building this portfolio with solid brands and reputable Domains which are the strength of the company.
