The abuse of alcohol is dangerous for your health. Drink responsibly. Veuve Clicquot supports the responsible consumption of wines and spirits, through Moët Hennessy, member of Spirits EUROPE, Discus and Wine in Moderation.
Didier Mariotti embodies the balance between heritage and modernity.
Coming from a family deeply rooted in the vine — with a grandfather who was a winemaker in Corsica and a Burgundian grandmother, heir to a long line of winegrowers — he developed a passion for wine, culture, and sharing at an early age.
An agricultural engineer (ENSAIA, 1995) and later a graduate in oenology in Reims (1999), he joined Moët & Chandon, where he contributed to the rollout of the group’s first wine traceability tool. It was during this period that he dedicated his oenologist’s thesis to a subject close to his heart: the management of reserve wines.
He continued his career at Nicolas Feuillatte, then at G.H. Mumm in 2003, where he was appointed Cellar Master in 2006.
Since 2019, he has been the 11ᵗʰ Cellar Master of Maison Veuve Clicquot. True to the bold spirit of Madame Clicquot, he promotes a precise and elegant style, driven by the finesse and depth of Pinot Noir.
From tasting still wines to creating blends and managing reserve wines — each step is guided by an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Dedicated to sustainable viticulture, he embodies a contemporary and responsible vision of a heritage House firmly oriented toward the future.
Profond et précis, le millésime 2018 de La Grande Dame exprime une nouvelle facette de l'Art du Pinot Noir.
