i. Biography
Moritz Nikolaus Lueke is Head of Grand Cru Select at Grand Cru Select in Bonn. The role sits at the intersection of wine knowledge, commercial judgment, and selection work that depends on a close eye for detail. In 2001, first hands-on wine experience at Weingut Georg Breuer gave the work a practical base: tasting, learning, selecting, and presenting wine with precision.
Coming Up
Training at University of Geisenheim grounded Moritz Nikolaus Lueke in the technical and commercial side of the trade. From there, the work moved through roles that widened the field from product knowledge to market handling. At Wein-Plus.de, Account Manager and editor meant working between the marketplace and the written word, where information, communication, and wine culture overlap. Category Manager for wines and spirits at VOM FASS required choosing, organizing, and shaping an assortment for customers with increasingly exacting expectations. At Schlumberger and Segnitz, buyer and Brand Manager added procurement, positioning, and presentation to the skill set. The path reflects a career built as much on judgment as on palate. Since 2023, Moritz Nikolaus Lueke has held the role of head of Grand Cru Select at Grand Cru Select, bringing earlier experience in media, retail, and trade into a more specialized remit.
Where They Are Now
Since 2023, Lueke has led Grand Cru Select in Bonn as Head of Grand Cru Select. The company is centered on exclusive top wines and a long-term partnership with Champagne Bollinger, placing it in a segment defined by heritage and prestige. In that setting, the work is interpretive as well as operational: selecting, framing, and presenting the wines with care. The occasion put food and wine in the same frame, and his wording places emphasis on the responsibility of guiding the room through it. The line describes the format plainly: a composed afternoon in which the wine service and the kitchen worked in tandem. The thanks map the network behind the event: the restaurant team, the sommelier, the wine house, and the wider circle that made the lunch function as one whole.
