Axel Domont

France

Feb 12

Axel Domont came to Savoie as a member of the French national cycling team, which he was a part of from 2013-2020. After a cycling accident ended his career, he found himself turning to a new passion: winemaking. His second career started with a first vintage in 2021. Most of Axel’s production is from rented vines at the foot of Mt. Granier. He purchases fruit from neighbors as well. Production space and supplies are borrowed from his friend Nicolas Ferrand at Domaine de Côte Rousses. The rented vines are all organically farmed and the purchased fruit is from either organic or biodynamic vineyards.
