Domaine Belluard
WTG PickAbout
Dominique Belluard is the custodian of Gringet, a rare indigenous Savoie grape variety planted in the high-altitude terraces of Ayze near Bonneville. Working biodynamically, he produces still and sparkling Gringet wines of astonishing aromatic complexity — herbal, floral, and mineral — that have earned cult status among natural wine collectors worldwide. The steep terraces, farmed entirely by hand, are among the most dramatic vineyard landscapes in the Alps.
Why It's a Hidden Gem
The world's leading producer of Gringet — a rare Savoie variety on Alpine terraces that almost went extinct, now making wines revered by natural wine lovers globally.
