i. Biography
The Climb
Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Zürich (EPFZ) gave Dominique Maigre a technical foundation that reads as method before romance: structure, sequence, and exactitude.
Today
Geneva wine growing and producing Domaine des Bonnettes wines is the present focus, and Dominique Maigre’s work there is expressed through a range that holds together by design rather than by accident. La Chapelle, made from Chasselas, sits at the center of that range and gives the estate a clear point of reference. Chardonnay is set apart by its own described profile: great, dry, ample, elegant wines. Sauvignon Blanc extends the lineup while staying anchored to the same place, keeping the estate’s voice coherent across varieties. Gamaret 2018 brings an expressive black-fruit nose and spice, with the vintage marking a specific point in the estate’s record. Taken together, the wines show how Domaine des Bonnettes moves from Chasselas to Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gamaret 2018 under Dominique Maigre’s direction, with each grape assigned its own role inside a single frame.
Signature
La Chapelle, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gamaret 2018 are the wines most directly tied to Dominique Maigre’s name in this profile. The signature here is a matter of range and recognizability: the bottlings that most clearly carry the estate’s identity as it is presented through his work.
Recognition
Dr en sciences techniques de l'EPFZ is the clearest formal credential attached to Dominique Maigre, and it gives its technical weight. That sits alongside the 2005 start of his operator role and the 2018 Gamaret vintage, both of which place the work in time. Together, those dates map a span of responsibility and a named wine that anchors the record.
