Company description
Les Lunes is a winery located in Richmond, CA, where we make lower intervention wines with a serious focus on farming.
We started our winery with the mindset of paying respect to the great wines of California's past. By utilizing our organic and regenerative farming practices, we've focused on restoring many historic vineyard sites throughout Sonoma and Napa. We strive to preserve these vines and let the complexity of the wines show through with as little intervention as possible. Our facility in the Bay Area also channels the spirit of urban winemaking and has afforded us the opportunity to support small farms, local farmers, and the greater community in general.
