A brand that attracts the best of the best
Vianney ESTABLET
Vianney comes from a five-generation Bordeaux winemaking family on the east bank of Bordeaux. With such a rich heritage and having been born and raised on a vineyard his understanding and command of the intricacies of vineyard operations make him highly qualified to accompany those considering a vineyard acquisition.
In 2010, he began honing his craft in London’s fine dining and luxury hospitality scene, rising to sommelier and general manager roles in Michelin-starred establishments. He went on to gain hands-on experience in some of the world’s most celebrated wine regions, including Bordeaux, Corsica, Central Otago in New Zealand, and Victoria in Australia.
Perfectly bilingual, his international background offers a rare perspective on both the technical and cultural dimensions of wine. In 2020, Vianney co-founded a high-end wine bar in Melbourne, set in a heritage-listed building and celebrating wines from around the globe, with a focus on rare discoveries, meaningful conversation, and craftsmanship.
A competitor at heart, Vianney is known for his exceptional people skills and broad understanding of wine. An avid chess player and mixed martial arts enthusiast, he draws from both disciplines the focus, strategy, and resilience that shape his professional approach.
In 2025, he returned to Bordeaux after successfully transitioning ownership of his Melbourne venue and joined the Vineyards-Bordeaux team at Maxwell-Baynes Christie’s International Real Estate as a vineyard and luxury property specialist. Combining Michelin-level attention to detail with deep global wine expertise, he is equally passionate about the residential and vineyard markets.
Charismatic yet discreet, and always attentive, Vianney’s ability to forge lasting relationships is second to none. He provides clients with a sage pair of hands with trusted, bespoke guidance in every transaction.
