The de Monceny family's history dates back to the Renaissance (16th century) when they left Savoy for Burgundy to escape the religious wars. Initially textile merchants, they entered the wine trade in the early 19th century when Philippe de Monceny established a brokerage in Beaune, specializing in sourcing grapes from the Côte de Beaune. His son Bertrand continued the business, focusing on bottled wines and using the family crest as the label logo.
