Matthieu Finot arrived in the United States from his native France in 2003, the same year that fellow Frenchman, Gilbert Tallard, established his five acres vineyards in Afton, Virginia. What started as a friendship between two compatriots, has grown over time with a mutual passion for wine and a complimentary exchange of expertise and knowledge between them.
The name “Domaine Finot” is associated with Matthieu’s family vineyards in France. Spearheaded by his brother, Thomas, Domaine Finot was established in the French Alps in 2008 and has since expanded to include production from the Finot family’s land in the Northern Rhone Valley. Including Virginia wines under the Finot family’s label was the natural next step, representing the family’s bi-national viticultural passions.
