Vineyard Director Guillaume Eicholz has life-long connections in wine through his family-owned estate in Meursault, France. At age 14 he interned with Michel Bouzereau, a well-known Burgundian wine grower who impressed the importance of proper vine cultivation in making great wine. This inspired Guillaume to attend a four-year viticulture and oenology program in Beaune followed by two years studying in Montpellier.
During multiple internships with Herve and Claude Muzard (Santenay-Burgundy) he focused on precise and sustainable viticulture.
In 2009, Guillaume married his wife Tiffany and they settled in Napa Valley. That same year, he was hired by Christian Moueix as Vineyard Director to oversee vineyard operations at Dominus Estate and Ulysses Vineyard. Today, Guillaume feels deeply rooted in the vineyards and is focused not only on improving their terroirs but also the lives of the people who tend them.
