Cécile Tremblay grew up in Vosne-Romanée. Neither her parents nor her grandparents had been winegrowers but her great-grandfather, Edouard Jayer, was a winemaker and had rented the family vineyards to other growers. After working in the vineyards as a teenager, things changed for Cécile when some of the family's vineyards were returned after a very long lease. Now she manages her own domaine. Domaine Cécile Tremblay stretches from Gevrey-Chambertin to Nuits-Saint-Georges, covering 11 appellations – with regional level to grand cru vineyards. The vineyards were not in great condition when Cécile took over but, with her tireless efforts, the vines are now certified organic and Cécile pursues a number of biodynamic methods.
