Bertrand Leulliette is the founder of Bertrand’s Wines, a respected importer specializing in family-owned estates from Burgundy and Beaujolais. After studying International Trade and Logistics, he moved to the United States and, at age 23, became Beverage Manager for one of Texas’s largest wine retailers — the start of a lifelong career in wine.

A formative encounter with the wines of Clos de Tart and winemaker Sylvain Pitiot sparked his passion for Burgundy. After working in Beaune as Export Director, Bertrand returned to the U.S. and launched Bertrand’s Wines in 2015.

Today, the company represents more than 36 growers and is known for its focused portfolio, strong producer relationships, and commitment to authenticity, fairness, and long-term partnerships in the American fine wine market.
