Variety: Syrah & Muscat Petits Grains

François-Xavier Daure (F.X.) may be one of those people who are actually BORN FOR THIS. Not only did he grow up in Espira de L'Agly, where he makes Lampyres, but he's been involved in the viticulture of the appellation since a wee child. Often joking that he was born on a tractor, farming is the key to winemaking according to F.X. Espira de L'Agly sits at the eastern end of the Agly Valley, about 20 km from the Mediterranean coast. FX may have come from Espira de L'Agly, but he had to go away to truly learn to be a vigneron as all the grapes his family grew went to the local cooperative.

In 2008 FX returned to the Roussilon and brought all he learned about organic farming and low-intervention winemaking with him. His family's harvest was still dedicated to the cooperative, so he farmed five additional hectares to begin his own label. His neighbors saw him out in the fields in the early hours of the morning. When it was dark he'd wear a headlamp to guide his way and his neighbors jested that he looked like a firefly, or in French, lampyre. So when FX needed a name for his domaine, he remembered the firefly and Domaine Lampyres was founded.

The syrah and Muscat Petits Grains are co-harvested and co-fermented The juices are fermented together in whole clusters for five days in fiberglass tanks after which they are pressed off and returned to fiberglass to finish fermentation. On day 5 the wines are combined and fermentation is finished in amphora. After undergoing malolactic fermentation, the wine is transferred to stainless steel for a short aging period. The final product is bottled unfined and unfiltered with an SO2 addition of 10 ppm.
