It was in 1865 that Camille Giroud, originally from Switzerland, married Mademoiselle Deschamps, daughter of a historic family of coopers and merchants from Beaune. He took over a small trading house: the Maison Giroud Deschamps was born. In 1903, she took the name Camille Giroud and moved to Avenue de la Gare in Beaune. Camille Giroud only bought musts and finished wines and made a name for himself thanks to his talents for maturing his wines patiently and in the best conditions. Lucien, Camille's youngest son, took over from his father and continued his work in the same direction, until 1967 when he moved into a large 19th century residence with an enclosed courtyard, farm buildings and vast cellars allowing him to expand the business.

In 1988, Becky Wasserman, an American who had lived in Burgundy since 1968, became the exclusive importer of Maison Camille Giroud in the United States. The following year, Lucien's sons, Bernard and François, took over the management of the house and gradually transformed the trading activity: they began to buy grapes and then a first vineyard in Beaune, in Premier Cru Aux Cras, followed by two other vines in Beaune, in Premier Cru Les Avaux and in Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. In 2000, they decided to sell the house and entrusted the sale to Becky Wasserman. In 2001, two great American winemakers, Ann Colgin and Joe Wender, as well as a few friends who were investors and lovers of old vintages, decided to take over the Maison Camille Giroud: they appointed Becky Wasserman as Manager and associated her with a young oenologist, David Croix.

A new vat room was built with thermoregulation, sorting table, destemmer, small stainless steel vats and pneumatic press. The cellar was redesigned, and a precise inventory of the hundreds of thousands of bottles in stock in the cellars was carried out. Vinification and ageing restore the nobility of the terroirs, those of the House's vines as well as those of the grapes purchased from partner winegrowers. In 2007, David Croix became director of the Maison Camille Giroud and remained so until 2016 when Carel Voorhuis succeeded him. The Maison Camille Giroud remains confidential, without aspiring to grow further but to continue the work undertaken.
