The field

Stéphane Montez is one of the most dynamic sector of Chavanay winemakers has in recent years managed to become a must for lovers of Northern Rhône wines.
The area of the Monteillet is first a family history. It is indeed the ninth generation that exploits these lands in Chavanay. Today, the vineyard is located on 24 acres: Syrah for reds of St. Joseph and Côte-Rôtie, Roussanne and Marsanne for the St. Joseph White, for the Condrieu Viognier.

The vines enjoy a unique microclimate where there is little rainfall, but the good air for ventilation from each vine. The ground is made of pebbles coming to capture the heat of the Sun to better disseminate the night. The new winery in the domain of the Monteillet, offering views of the Rhone Valley, allows Stéphane Montez still more precision during the vinification of grapes harvested by hand and placed in small crates.
