Gilles le Vinier (1195–1252) was a trouvère from a middle-class family of Arras. He was the younger brother of fellow trouvère Guilliaume le Vinier. He entered the church and served as a canon at Arras, where he was the church's legal representative between 1225 and 1234, and at Lille. At Arras he created several benefices between 1236 and 1246. His last one was founded on the death of his brother. In his song Aler m'estuet la ou je trerai paine he mentions making a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
