Maison Les Grands Pas is a young domaine based in L’Étoile, in the Jura, founded by Romain and Arianne, who left their careers in Paris to pursue a new life in the region. Previously a lawyer and restaurateurs, Romain went on to study viticulture and winemaking before gaining experience alongside Emmanuel Houillon and Nicolas Jacob. In 2024, the couple took over Ludwig Bindernagel’s domaine in L’Étoile, bringing an approach centred on vineyard health, biodiversity and controlled yields to produce balanced, concentrated fruit. In the cellar, the reds undergo gentle extraction and relatively short ageing to preserve freshness and drinkability, while the whites receive a minimum of two years of élevage to develop structure and complexity. Sulphur is used only when necessary, with the priority being to produce precise, vibrant wines that reflect their Jura terroir.
From the south of Beaujolais, Bellevue terroir. 3 weeks of whole-bunch maceration, then 10 months in barrel, made and aged entirely at Nicolas Jacob’s. Very ripe and rich, with concentrated fruit, spice and granite, from 40-year-old vines.
