Luke Devot
Montner, Roussillon, France
Luc Devot led several lives before he discovered winemaking: he was a chef for 7 years, but also a fisherman, musician, worked in animation and as a teacher. His first harvest was with Jean-Louis Tribouley who introduced him to natural wine. Here he found his passion and Devot started training under Loïc Roure of Domaine du Possible and became a volunteer at the La Remise wine fair.
After some time at various vineyards, Devot worked for 3 years with Philippe Wies from Domaine de la petite baigneuse. Here he realized that the profession of winemaker was for him, in 2017 he made his first wines and now he works with 4 hectares of vines in Montner.
His vines are mainly on slate and clay-limestone soils on the rolling hills along the Pyrenees. The grapes Devot works with are mainly Syrah, Grenache Noire, Mourvèdre, Lledoner Pelut and Grenache Gris. All wines are unfiltered and with as few additives as possible during vinification. His wines are light, easy to drink and full of flavor!
