Dominique was sadly lost during the pandemic, concluding nearly 35 years of his leadership at the family estate. He took over in 1988 and focused solely on vines, especially the native Gringet variety, employing biodynamic methods to enhance vineyard health. Gringet combines Sauvignon Blanc’s brightness with Chenin Blanc’s texture and shows aging potential similar to aged Chablis.

The estate will stay in the family, with a new winemaker committed to preserving Dominique’s legacy under the name Domaine de Gringet. The Ayze Les Perles du Mont Blanc resembles fine Champagne, featuring Gringet's green streak and citrus notes. Monsieur Gringet mirrors top Chablis with its texture and crystalline minerality. The 2020 Eponyme, finished by Jean-Francois Ganevat, showcases ripe white fruits and salty mineral nuances, while Les Alpes emphasizes Gringet’s freshness with dried apricot, lime zest, and a richer palate.
