Buying grapes
Des vins d'Envie is a collaboration between Maxime Dancoine of Domaine de l’Aitonnement and Guillaume Lavie of Les Vins de Lavie. Both Guillaume and Maxime are doing their estate wine on their own, farming very small vineyards and releasing very small quantities of wines rightly price for their quality, but not always the best for thirsty people. They both wanted to create simpler and approachable wines that share the same attention when it comes to farming and winemaking: organic farming, low intervention, environmentally friendly processes... wines for friends and for everyday. They met just before the 2016 vintage and talked about that desire. Des Vins D’Envie was formed to make this dream a reality, based on the concept of buying grapes from organic and environmentally-conscious farmers, making the wines in the facility of Maxime.
We are dedicated to craft wine. Real wine produced by real people in limited quantity, from the new generation of natural winemakers to the classic high-end Burgundians. Sorry, no industrial wine here!
We are not just another Direct-to-Consumer website. Actually, we don't sell directly to consumers at all, as we believe selling wine is an art. We don't want to replace it, rather just make it easier, so you can focus on the art.
We believe the trade should be as fluid as wine. Processes, information and transactions should flow as a fine wine, in and out of a Zalto glass. That's where a Digital Platform can help.
For the wine market to be healthy, firstly it must take care of the producers. We believe that the trade should be fair and transparent, across all channels, from the producer to the final consumer.
