⁠
About Grace Cooper:⁠
Creativity and a love for art and nature have been passed along in Grace’s family for generations. Her desire to be an artist took hold early on, and with the encouragement of her parents, the journey began while taking classes at the Silvermine Guild Arts Center in New Canaan, Connecticut. Grace then continued her studies at the School of Visual Arts in New York City where she earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. Before dedicating herself to painting full time, she was a textile designer for printed fabric in both the apparel and home furnishing industries. Grace has been exhibiting her work in galleries and shows since her days at Silvermine, and her paintings are in private and corporate collections throughout the United States.⁠

The Victorieux portfolio.
Our portfolio includes only sustainable, organic, or biodynamic grower champagne from vignerons independents. We source our wines through exclusive relationships with recoltant manipulants in the Vallee de la Marne, Montagne de Reims, Cotes des Bars (Aube), and Cote de Sezzane. We emphasize our focus on female producers and wines from the rustic southern reaches of the region.
