LUYT History
Born in Lieshout (the Netherlands), outdoor life has always been in Maarten’s blood. While his brothers were busy with soccer, Maarten was taking care of planting trees. He converted his innate love for nature into a new existence at the beginning of this millennium. He left the Netherlands to become proficient in viticulture and winery.
Maarten then followed the wine seasons and traveled from the northern to the southern hemisphere for several years depending on the harvest times.
