Sandrine Bersier

Winegrowing at Domaine de la Roche 1859 is framed by return, training, and estate continuity. After further training in viticulture, Sandrine Bersier returned in 2018 to the Dardagny estate, where the inherited work is remade through the current vintage rather than preserved as a static family fact. The family domain supplies the line; the present role supplies the handling. Domaine de la Roche 1859’s winegrowing activity dates back to 1859, and Bersier’s work gives that history its current form through the material responsibilities of vineyard and cellar.

Viticulture is the stated specialty, and vinification is part of the role. At Domaine de la Roche 1859, Sandrine Bersier works as winegrower and vinifies the estate’s wine range in Dardagny. The work runs from care of the vine through the choices after harvest and into the cellar, where the range takes its finished shape. Estate wine depends on that joined discipline: growing is not separate from the bottle that carries the domain’s name.

In Dardagny, Geneva, Switzerland, the wines of Domaine de la Roche 1859 are tied to place through viticulture and completed through vinification. Two named wines give that work a celebratory shape.

Named bottles operate as markers of an estate’s range rather than as loose branding. Frutti Bulles sits in the Domaine de la Roche 1859 range as a named expression connected to Sandrine Bersier’s work as winegrower and to the family domain in Dardagny.

Recognition here is not framed by a listed trophy. The durable fact is the title and the line behind it: winegrower at a family estate whose activity dates back to 1859.
