Product Description
The Wine: Luminescence 2019
Domaine Lampyres Luminescence 2019 is a natural wine made from a blend of Muscat a Petit Grains, Muscat of Alexandria, and Macabeo grapes farmed organically in the Roussillon region of Southern France.
The Producer: Domaine Lampyres
Domaine Lampyres is a project led by Francois-Xavier Daure, who for many years was Tom Lubbe's right hand at Matassa. FX is a dedicated vigneron who while working at Matassa was also tending his 8 hectares, working very early in the morning with a lamp on his head ā hence the name "lampyres", French for firefly. Mentored by Tom Lubbe, FX started making a few white wines in 2017, then a few thousand bottles in 2018, and just this past year FX was able to go his own way.
The Region: Languedoc

Shipping & Returns
Stress Free Shipping
At Primal Wine we like to be transparent about everything we do. When it comes to buying products online, shipping is the most important aspect, and thatās why we take great care in shipping and handling your order using only 100% recycled packaging material.
Re-shipping
If a package gets returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee. Shipping wine is extremely expensive, we are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.
Important Compliance Requirements
UPS and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older.
Important COVID Update
UPS and FedEx declared that in order to protect their workers and customers, they no longer require a signature on delivery. This does not mean they will drop a wine box at your door. UPS delivery workers will make sure the person receiving the wine is 21 years or older, and will ask for his/her name - only then do they deliver the package.
Shipping Rates and Options
An important premise: wine bottles are heavy ā about 3 pounds each ā and shipping is expensive! Primal Wine is not backed by venture capital money ā we proudly are a mom and pop independent online store ā and we must charge shipping on all orders, otherwise we wouldnāt be in business. However, we try our best to offer you very competitive shipping rates.
Return Policy
If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us at (424) 414-2040 or via e-mail at hello@primalwine.com between 9 am and 5 pm Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Sunday, we would like to understand and try to solve your concerns.
We may make arrangements for a return and refund if appropriate, and only after we receive unopened products back to our warehouse.
What is Natural Wine?
Natural winemaking has become a movement akin to a revolution, a nemesis to the industrialization and homogenization of wine in the past three decades. Natural wine producers are at the forefront of this movement, rejecting industrial winemaking techniques and the excessive use of pesticides, fungicides, herbicides or fertilizers in the vineyard. Perhaps even more importantly, natural wine should be seen as an agricultural product where farming is and essential part. Farming conditions, labor rights, sustainability, and ethical practises across the supply chain are now at the center of the discourse on natural wine.
Natural Wine Main Characteristics
ā Natural wine is made with organically or biodynamically-farmed grapes ā even though in some cases they are not certified. š
ā Natural wine is made implementing ethical labor practices that respect each and everyone involved in the process. š©āš¾
ā Natural wine is made with minimal intervention in the cellar during the winemaking process. Natural wine is made with natural yeast; no industrial yeast is added to add a particular flavor to the wine. š¦
ā Most of our wines have no added sulfites. When producers do add sulfites they do so in minimal quantities (20-25 mg/l), which don't affect the taste of the wine. šØāš¬
ā Natural wines are often bottled unfined and unfiltered and as a result, sediment collects at the bottom of the bottle. Unfined natural wine is vegan-friendly. šæ
Why Should I Try Natural Wine?
Natural wine is probably the most fascinating wine on the market. Discovering natural wines is made even more exciting by the fact that each vintage is different and has a different flavor. The non-interventionist, hands-off winemaking approach, along with organic and biodynamic best practices in the vineyards, gives wines of unique character. š·
