La Compagnie Vinicole de Bourgogne was created in 1950 by Felix Picard Chagny, in a town located 20km in the south of Beaune. The company experienced strong growth under the leadership of his son, Michel Picard, who headed the company between 1960 and the early 2000s. It is now managed by Gabriel Picard, son of Michel. The company has become a group (Picard Wine and Spirits) present in wines and spirits. Regarding wines, PVS bought companies in the Rhône (Maison Denuziere, Grandes Serres), vineyards in Burgundy (Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise) and a company in the Loire Maison Foucher.

Grenache or Garnacha is one of the most widely planted red wine grape varieties in the world. It ripens late, so it needs hot, dry conditions such as those found in Spain, where the grape most likely originated. It is also grown in the Italian island of Sardinia, the south of France, Australia, and California's Monterey AVA, Paso Robles, and San Joaquin Valley. It is generally spicy, berry-flavored and soft on the palate and produces wine with a relatively high alcohol content. Characteristic flavor profiles on Grenache include red fruit flavors (raspberry and strawberry) with a subtle, white pepper spice note.

Bordeaux Supérieur is the appellative of wines produced in the generic area of AOP Bordeaux that are produced from the classic Bordeaux grape varieties.  The red wines are, as suggested by their name, intended to be a slightly 'superior' form of the AOC standard bordeaux wines. Therefore, it relies heavily on Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller quantities of Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec.
