About the Winemaker
Le Nadir is a micro-domaine in the south-Saumurois founded in 2019 by Fabien Perréard, a former graphic designer and world traveler.
After living in Paraguay, Brazil, and Spain, Fabien was drawn to Saumur's natural wine scene. Apprenticed with local vignerons before starting his own 2-hectare estate.
2 hectares farmed by hand. Zero additions - no sulfites, no fining, no filtration. Wines age in Côme Isambert's tuffeau caves. Organic Chenin and Grolleau.
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!
