Rémy Martin cellar master retires

Pierette Trichet, cellar master of Rémy Martin, is to retire from the company in the spring, leaving her position to protégé Baptiste Loiseau.

Pierrette Trichet will hand her role of Rémy Martin cellar master to Baptiste Loiseau in the spring

Trichet, who joined the House of Rémy Martin in 1976 in the study and research laboratory, went on to become the first female cellar master of a major Cognac house in 2003.

After 10 years in the role, Rémy Martin will hold an induction ceremony in spring 2014 to pay tribute to Trichet, and welcome Loiseau as her replacement.

Loiseau, who has been training underneath Trichet since joining Rémy Martin in 2007, is said to have “excellent expertise” in tasting Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne Cognacs and eaux-de-vie.

He will become Rémy Martin’s fifth cellar master in the last 100 years, following André Renaud, André Giraud, Georges Clot and Pierrette Trichet.
