Know a bit more about the domain

Since the 17th century, the Monteillet estate has belonged to the Villard family, whose most famous representative is Louis Hector, Duke of Villard, Marshal of France under Louis XIV.
Gradually, Stéphane Montez's ancestors, winegrowers, bargemen, coopers, driven by the love of the Rhone and the work of the vine, bought up the land of the estate parcel by parcel.
A notarized deed from 1741 shows Michel, "master carpenter on the Rhône and cooper", ancestor of Stéphane Montez, buying a vineyard in Monteillet. His descendants, after the Revolution, continued their acquisitions.
Today, Stéphane Montez succeeds his father Antoine, who passed on all his know-how.
Thus the Montez family plant, vinify, raise and market their wines, on 38 hectares and four appellations.
