Luc Devot was a cook for 7 years, a fisherman for 3 years, musician, animator, educator. He had many lives before becoming a winemaker. He worked his first harvest with Jean-Louis Tribouley, who introduced Luc to natural wines. In the years that followed, many winemakers settled with similar cultivation and vinification methods. Driven by this momentum, and after training with Loïc Roure from Domaine du possible, he became a volunteer at the “La remise” wine fair. Luc’s very first vinification was in 2017 and now he works with 4 hectares of vines.
Amb Amics is Catalan and means ‘with my friends’. It’s 60% Syrah on decomposed schist with carbonic maceration (10 days), 40% Grenache also on schist soil with carbonic maceration (18 days). The Syrah is aged in barrel for 5 months, then blended with the Grenache in stainless steel tanks for 2 months before bottling.
Explosive, juicy blackberry burst with hints of sweet spices and a eucalyptus finish. Extremly gulpable, it features subtle tannins, complimented by great acidity. Serve lightly chilled, and pair with tapas and friends.

Manuel Olivier Hautes Cotes Nuits Pinot NoirDomaine Manuel Olivier’s Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Rouge is a wine from Pinot Noir planted just above the Grands Crus of the Côte de Nuits. Located on an East-Southeast-facing slope 350 meters above the Clos de Vougeot on rocky clay and limestone soils, it is destemmed, cold macerated for a week, wild yeast fermented half in tank and half in old barrels then aged on its lees for 9 months. Then it is bottled unfined, unfiltered and with a minimal drop of SO2. This wine is a bright yet dense Pinot Noir that offers red berry and flowery notes, ending with a long finish.
Piquentum Malvasia Blanc
Piquentum Malvasia BlancFrom vineyards planted in predominately flysch rich white soil unique to Istria. It was fermented in 100% stainless steel after 2-3 days on the skins resulting in a wonderfull texture and straw yellow color. In further contrast to the coast, this is the rugged truffle ridden and forested interoir that results in an undeniable savory character that is kept in balance by lively acidity. Earthy enough to pair with hard cheeses, bright enough to highlight fresh green herbs, and a medium body that stands up to fish, it’s an ideal food wine for the nearby and perhaps more familiar Italian kitchen.

The Gasnier’s ‘little wine’ is bright and racy and is wonderful with grilled food, roasted poultry and hard cheeses.
