Maison Harbour

Nicholas and Colleen Harbour are the owners of Maison Harbour. Colleen was born in Canada but lived most of her life in the tiny country of Luxembourg. Nicholas was born in the United States, lived in Sweden for several years, moved to Luxembourg, back to the United States and then settled back in Luxembourg.

The couple met in Luxembourg in the early 2000s during their high school years and eventually moved back to Luxembourg together in 2008 where they worked in the financial industry for several years. In 2012, they made the decision to pursue a dream of making wine in France and moved to Savigny-lès-Beaune, a village in the heart of the Côte-d’Or.

On arrival in Burgundy they attended the wine school in Beaune, studying the technical aspects of winemaking and the commercial side of wine. Before graduating they had already established their winery, a small négociant vinificateur, called Maison Harbour.

Nick now works at Maison Harbour full time, while Colleen holds an administration role at Becky Wasserman & Co, while also throwing herself into their eponymous passion project by his side.
