A natural legacy, true to the original spirit
Stéphane Derenoncourt’s vision was distinctive: to link oenological consulting with viticultural guidance, fostering a richer understanding and expression of terroir. This philosophy has earned international recognition through the commitment of our team.

From pioneers to partners
Today, Stéphane Derenoncourt has stepped away from consulting. In 2023, he entrusted his shares to some of his very first consultants — colleagues present from the beginning — who, over time, became partners. They have helped shape our company’s story and contributed to its growth over the past 25 years.

A fresh chapter, closer to the vineyards
Building on this inspiring and fruitful past, our four partners are opening a fresh chapter — one that reflects a new era in the wine world, shaped by climate challenges and commercial pressures. With the company’s name evolving to Derenoncourt Vignerons Consultants, our commitment remains firmly to the land and to those who craft the wine.
