Domaine Michel & Stephane Ogier

This small fine domaine is run by Michel's son, Stephane Ogier, who was born in 1977 - one of youngest wine makers in Cote Rotie. He started working in the domaine alongside his dad in 1998. Since 2003 a new temperature-controlled cellar is in place and there is expanded barrel sapce. Fruit from all the plots is vinified separately so each terroir can be identified and respected.

Shortly after taking over, Stephane started to introduce new luxury Cuvees and over the last decade he developed his own style, which makes great, highly rated sought after wines and consistenly fine wines vintage after vintage.

The most famous wine of the domaine was introduced in 1997 - the Cote Rotie "Cuvee Belle Helene" from the Cote-Rozier vineyard. This wine pays homage to Stephane's mom, who leads the spirit of the family.
