About The Lemon Tree
At The Lemon Tree, wine is not an afterthought but an integral part of the story on the table. The thoughtful selection and genuine guidance create an experience that stays with you long after your visit. For wine lovers visiting Deventer, this is without doubt an address not to be missed.
The wine list at The Lemon Tree is carefully composed, focusing on wines with character, authenticity, and a strong sense of place. Guests will find classic European regions – Burgundy, Piedmont, Mosel – alongside exciting discoveries from smaller producers who work sustainably and practice minimal intervention in the cellar.
The structure of the list is clear and intuitive, with more than 170 wines in total, neatly arranged by country and mostly accompanied by concise descriptions. This makes choosing easy and confident, even with an extensive selection. The balance between accessible bottles and special cuvées gives the list both depth and elegance. Even Burgundy can be found here at surprisingly friendly prices.
Sommelier Duncan Vos represents a new generation: approachable, sharp, and without pretence (sneakers instead of a tie). His style is relaxed and guest-focused, offering recommendations that feel like a conversation rather than a lecture. A nice guy. If he could, he would happily join you at the table. Pairings are creative and seamlessly aligned with the kitchen, with a focus on local produce, finesse, and worldly techniques. There are also distinctive, high-level non-alcoholic pairing options.
