Rated estate (2027 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the estate:

The estate’s origins date back to the 16th century; the Montez family has been growing grapes there since 1741. Stéphane Montez, who took over from his father Antoine in 1999, represents the ninth generation of winemakers. Today, he manages a 42-hectare vineyard (Cornas, Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, and IGP) situated on the heights of Chavanay at an elevation of 320 meters. A sure bet in the northern valley.

About the estate:

Since 1997, Stéphane Montez has been cultivating a vineyard planted on steep hillsides located less than 2 kilometers from his winery, producing wines that beautifully reflect the identity of their terroirs. This rare estate produces 40% white wines, including a superb range of Condrieu wines. As for reds, the estate owns a plot of old Syrah vines in Saint-Joseph, which yield the generous and rich Cuvée du Papy, as well as fine vineyards in Côte-Rôtie.
