Jean-Antoine Nony

Coming Up

Since 2011, the work at Château Grand Mayne has sat with Jean-Antoine Nony in the role of co-owner and manager. The brief is not only operational; it is also custodial, with Cabernet Franc set within the blends and vineyard restoration mapped through 2035. In Saint-Émilion, that kind of management asks for continuity: reading the estate through seasons, carrying forward what the property has kept, and making room for what still needs to be rebuilt.

Where They Are Now

Since 2011, Jean-Antoine Nony has been co-owner and manager of Château Grand Mayne. The current work centers on two linked tasks: returning Cabernet Franc to the blends and carrying the vineyard restoration program through 2035. That gives the estate a long working horizon, where each decision is measured against years rather than one vintage alone. At Château Grand Mayne, management is tied to structure, balance, and the slow discipline of renewal.

Signature

The named wines attached to Jean-Antoine Nony point to the estate’s own language of blend and vintage: 2019 Grand Mayne Bordeaux Blend, Chateau Grand Mayne 2020, and Château Grand Mayne 2025. Read together, they mark continuity across years rather than isolated releases. The throughline is Château Grand Mayne’s identity, with Cabernet Franc occupying part of that structure as the estate continues to define its style in successive vintages.

In Their Words “Grand Mayne is also a family, my family specifically. My grand-father fell in love with this place, this terroir and this château.” At Château Grand Mayne, the line places family history directly inside the estate’s working identity. For Jean-Antoine Nony, the property is framed as inherited ground: a place where attachment is not separate from management, and where the château’s history is carried in family terms.
