Maison Stephan

Jean-Michel Stéphan comes from a family of market gardeners and arboriculturists, through his father and great-grandfather. When it was founded, the vineyard consisted of 2 hectares of AOC Côte-Rotie sold to a local wine merchant. It was not until 1994 that the first bottles were sold.
In 2017, Jean-Michel Stéphan joined forces with his son Romain to create Maison Stéphan and build its future. Then in 2022, his second son Dorian Stéphan joined the family estate to develop together this unique vision of their region.

The concept of Vin Nature originated with Jules CHAUVET, a Beaujolais wine merchant and scientist. The principle is to create a wine without any corrective products to ensure that the wines are digestible and aromatically complex. These are wines for pleasure and can be laid down.
A charter was created, AVN, in the 2000s to regulate production, educate consumers and ensure transparency on the part of the winemaker.
