L.D.VINS
A growing trader
L.D. Vins, which celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2023, was born of a passion for wine and a great friendship shared by Frédéric de Luze and Thierry Decré.
They quickly specialised in the distribution of Grands Crus Classés de Bordeaux and premium wines, both French and foreign, to the best prescribers (more than 1,300 customers worldwide, with a turnover of around €60 million).
After 25 years of perfect cooperation and understanding, the “L” of L.D.Vins, Frédéric de Luze, passed away prematurely. It was at this time that the Lorenzetti family joined L.D.Vins by taking a stake in the capital and, thanks to their team and impetus, they were able to restore all the confidence and support necessary for development.
Today, L.D.Vins ships several million bottles across the world every year, particularly to China where L.D.Vins has developed a near 300-strong network. With a team of 35 employees, L.D.Vins prospects new customers every year in France, but also in the United States, United Kingdom, Vietnam, Cambodia, Bermuda, etc.
Its offices are located on the right bank of the Garonne river, opposite the Bordeaux quays, as one of the last symbols of this trade that made the city rich.

About Thierry DECRÉ,
Creator of « L.D.Vins »
Born in 1961, after having lived his early years in Africa, nothing predestined him to dedicate his professional life to the distribution of fine wines around the world.
After six months in England perfecting his English, he resumed his accounting studies as an independent candidate and entered business school. Experienced in mass distribution and then wine sales, he created L.D.Vins with his friend Frédéric de Luze and developed the export of this French and Bordeaux know-how.
L.D.VINS confirms its status as leader in grand cru classés!
In a difficult economic climate and in an increasingly competitive market, L.D.Vins is strengthening its position throughout the Asian continent thanks to numerous sales tours, trade fairs and events as close as possible to its customers, and is continuing its development in traditional markets by strengthening its specialist sales force in key markets: the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States.
