About the Winemaker
Léo Dirringer is a fourth-generation Alsace vigneron working from his family's Domaine Ruhlmann-Dirringer in Dambach-la-Ville, north of Colmar.
After studying oenology in Montpellier and Switzerland, Léo discovered natural wine and returned home in 2017 to guide the 14-hectare estate toward organic viticulture and a fresher, more transparent style.
Farming & Cellar: Certified organic farming, hand harvesting, slow pressing, native yeast fermentation, no filtration, and no added sulfur. The wines are built to be fresh, digestible, and fluid.
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!
