About us…

Who we are :

We are a team of wine enthusiasts with a common, deep passion for the Languedoc Roussillon. We live in the Languedoc, we breathe the Languedoc and we do our best to taste as many wines as possible from the unknown vineyards of this beautiful region.

It hasn’t been easy to set up wine sales with quality as our unconditional objective. We have always fought for fair trade and prefer buying our wines according to tasting results rather than bottle design.

Our initiative to create this website has been inspired by each person's natural potential to understand wine, find what he or she likes and become his or her own expert.

We believe that it is not necessary to understand each detail of winemaking to be able to appreciate wine tasting.

It’s up to you to decide what you like. Here you can find fairly priced bottles coming directly from producers we know well.

You are the wine expert here!

Our Team :

Laurence

Laurence is a wine specialist, born in a local Languedoc wine producing family. She studied History but has since concentrated on getting to know as many wines as possible from every Appellation in the Languedoc. She tirelessly researches terroirs, wine producers´ techniques and every grape variety in the region. Her position at LWS.com is to keep the variety and selection of wines a fresh one, offering to customers a broad variety of gems that are hard to find elsewhere.

Julien

Julien graduated in Wine Business and Commerce. He came to the Limoux region to deepen his knowledge of the region’s economics and learn more about how winemakers are struggling to survive in a competitive and difficult industry. He ensures that all stages of our business are run in a family way and that our partner producers and customers alike are treated as part of our family. He is the family's manager.

Richard

Richard's career background has always been people and service focused. The decision to live, work and study wine in his adoptive France, combines his passion and pleasure of superb wine which he enjoys sharing with friends and customers. His role within the team is to make the services of the internet portal more accessible, and to source new export opportunities for the magnificent wines this beautiful region produces to other professionals and amateurs of wine alike.

Our philosophy :

Being people who work with wine because of a calling from the unknown...it is not simple to sum up our philosophy within a short paragraph.

Our main aim is to continue what we have started, searching for great people who make great wines.

We follow this approach throughout the services we propose and are committed to providing shipping at the cost price (consult our shipping conditions).

We also make sure that our wine prices are fair, that they are affordable and are directly linked to each wine's value. This makes it possible for people from all kinds of backgrounds to find what they like at a price they can afford via our internet site.

What is the origin of our wines? We help small producers to understand new demands. The LWS.com project has been possible only because of a special relationship we have built up with producers throughout the region. This enables an exceptional pricing policy with no intermediaries between our producers, us and you.

We limit our margins to the strict minimum necessary to allow us to keep tasting new wines, continue what we love doing and propose great wines at reasonable prices.

We hope that our customers will appreciate our convictions and ethics and that tasting wines will become as interesting for you as it is for us.

Our best wishes,

The family wine team from www.languedocwineshop.com
