Maison Thiriet Camille Thirie

Born in Paris with no family links to wine, Camille Thiriet’s path into Burgundy was driven by curiosity rather than inheritance. Initially drawn to perfumery after literary studies, she became fascinated by aroma recognition, a sensitivity that later became central to her winemaking. Studies in Beaune and Bordeaux followed, though she soon realised that hands on experience mattered more to her than academic theory.

Her early career was shaped at Nicolas Potel’s winery, where she met her partner Matt and deepened her understanding of Burgundy’s terroirs. In 2016, they released their first 2,000 bottles from a small garage in Comblanchien, working with minimal resources but clear intent. Early guidance from figures such as Bernard Noblet of Domaine de la Romanée Conti and Jérémie Seysses of Domaine Dujac helped refine her approach.

Today, Camille works across Corgoloin and Comblanchien in the Côte de Nuits, producing precise, site driven wines defined by intuition, observation and a hands on, unforced philosophy in both vineyard and cellar.
