His parents and Jean-Pierre expanded little by little, and now own 18 hectares of vineyards in Chablis AOC and Premier Cru. Jean-Pierre Grosso began making wine under his father in 1970. He started making wine alone in 1979, and that was the first vintage in which he sold wine under his name. He learned a lot about cultivation, harvesting, brewing and wine culture from his grandfather and father, and at the same time inherited his passion for winemaking, and has been selling wine under the current Domaine name label since 1980. His daughter Eva is also currently involved in the Domaine. Grape cultivation is done in a traditional and natural manner, with organic fertilizers and minimal use of pesticides.
