2024 Maison Stephan "Le Grenache", Rhône Valley, France
There are 57 units left in stock.
ABOUT THE WINE
Le Grenache is part of Maison Stephan’s “Vin de France” series, a collection of naturally made wines that highlight Rhône varieties in their most unfiltered and expressive form. Sourced from organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards in the Northern Rhône—an uncommon origin for Grenache—the 2024 vintage showcases whole-cluster fermentation with native yeasts, no sulfur, and no fining or filtration. The result is a wine that feels raw and immediate, emphasizing fruit purity and textural finesse over extraction or oak influence. Best served slightly chilled, it pairs effortlessly with grilled vegetables, charcuterie, or roast chicken with herbs.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Maison Stephan is a trailblazer in the Northern Rhône, known for its natural approach to viticulture and winemaking, and for pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the region. Founded by Jean-Michel Stephan in Côte-Rôtie, the estate has long eschewed chemical inputs and relies solely on spontaneous fermentation, zero sulfur additions, and no manipulation in the cellar. While renowned for their elegant, no-sulfur Syrah from Côte-Rôtie, the Vin de France bottlings—like Le Grenache—reflect a freer, more experimental spirit within the same minimalist framework. Every bottle offers a window into terroir, vintage, and the vibrant energy of living wine.
