About the Winemaker
Domaine Les Lampyres is the creation of François-Xavier Dauré, a 4th-generation vigneron working in Espira de l'Agly in Roussillon, France.
François-Xavier learned his craft working alongside Tom Lubbe at Domaine Matassa before establishing his own domain. The name 'Lampyres' refers to the fireflies that illuminate his vineyards on summer nights.
Farming & Cellar: Certified organic since 2015, with biodynamic practices. Hand harvesting, native yeast, whole cluster fermentation when appropriate, and minimal sulfites at bottling.
US Natural Wine ships once a week, every Wednesday. All orders should be placed by Tuesday at noon in order to be picked up from our distributors and out on Wednesday's delivery truck.
Shipping cost is 35 bucks a box (up to 12 bottles) so we highly encourage picking up more than 1 bottle for the best value! Remember, all orders over $200 get FREE SHIPPING!
At $35, shipping cost is on par with most wine ecommerce. Ultimately, we eat the cost of shipping more often than not because wine can be damn heavy. We can't thank you enough for your understanding!
