Our wines

The grapes for this cuvée grow in a place where the soil has been tended with care for centuries: the Moestuin plot. The history of this patch of land takes us all the way back to the 17th century, when it served as the proud vegetable garden of Huis Der Boede.

In the 18th century, the vegetables made way for a fertile fruit orchard, a tradition of growth and blossoming that we continue today with our viticulture. Thus, in this wine you taste not only the terroir, but also the age-old soul of the estate.

Slot Der Boede collapsed around 1717. Around the castle at that time there were already many trees/fruit trees and a kitchen garden.

The grapes for this cuvée originate from the plot De Twi Measured, where the history of the Walcheren landscape is still tangible. The name takes us back to the time when a ‘gemet’ was the measure for a hard day's work: the area that a farmer could plough with his team of horses in a single day.

On this special piece of land, precisely two measured large (or ’twi’ in our local dialect), our Pinot gris is now planted. Thus, the craftsmanship of the past flows seamlessly into the refined taste of today.

The grapes for this cuvée grow on historic land: plot De Bogerd. Once, this was a flourishing part of the 16-hectare park belonging to Huis Der Boede. For more than a century, fruit trees graced this piece of land, with our predecessors as the very last generation of fruit growers. The name is a tribute to this past; in the Walcheren dialect, ‘Bogerd’ simply means orchard.

The Souvignier gris for this cuvée has its origins in a place with a regal character: the plot known as ’t Hof Triton. The name takes us back to the early 18th century, when the idyllic country estate De Triton was founded here.

Centuries ago, this estate served as a beloved summer residence, an oasis of peace and relaxation. That same light, summery energy can still be tasted today in this wine, which is deeply rooted in the rich history of this special piece of land.

The grapes for this Chardonnay ripen on the historic plot of De Bogerd. But the true secret of this cuvée lies in the ageing in wood: the hogsheads.

This name takes us back to the 17th century, the heyday of the Zeeland wine trade. In the narrow streets of the Middelburg Kuiperspoort, coopers worked tirelessly on these imposing casks. At the time, an ‘Oxhoofd’ was not only a cask, but also an official unit of volume for precisely 300 bottles of wine.

This year we have proudly filled six of these authentic hogsheads with our best Chardonnay. The result is a characterful wine with a rich history, which we rightly call De Zes Oxhoofden.

Did you know that the Kuiperspoort was the beating heart of the wine trade?

Anyone walking through the picturesque Kuiperspoort in Middelburg today steps straight into the 17th century. This narrow, cobbled street was once the domain of the powerful coopers' guild.

Here, hidden between the Dam and the Rouaansekaai, artisans worked day and night on wooden casks and barrels – the indispensable packaging for the thriving Zeeland wine trade. Above the gateway, the year 1586 still proudly features, a reminder of the time when Middelburg was the Republic's most important trading city after Amsterdam. The warehouses with their hoisting beams and deep cellars recall the enormous quantities of wine that were once stored here in the renowned ‘oxheads’.

This cuvée tells the story of two plots with character: Enclosed en Triangle. The plot The Triangle owes its name to its striking geometric shape, a unique landmark in our landscape.

In addition, we find Enclosed, a name that nods to the French tradition of walled vineyards. Our ‘wall’, however, is a natural boundary: a dense hedge of black alders that borders the plot. This green shelter creates a warm microclimate in which our red grapes can ripen optimally in complete peace and under favourable conditions.

This special cuvée of the Souvignier gris has its origins in a place with a rich history: the plot known as ’t Hof Triton. Around the year 1700, the idyllic De Triton country estate was founded here, which served for centuries as a beloved and sunny summer residence.

Inspired by the artisanal tradition of icewine, we followed a unique process for this wine. Immediately after harvest, the grapes are frozen to -10 degrees Celsius. In our vertical press, the frozen grapes reveal their deepest secret: an extremely concentrated, syrupy juice.

The result is a very limited release of a velvety, luscious dessert wine. A true treasure of the estate, which we proudly call Triton's Court Jewel.

This cuvée brings together the best of two historic worlds: the sun-drenched grounds of ’t Hof Triton and the fertile soil of the Moestuin. Together they form a tribute to our beautiful peninsula of Walcheren, which has affectionately been called the ‘Garden of Zeeland’ for centuries.

Like a walk through a blossoming Zeeland garden, this wine surprises with an exuberant fruity and floral bouquet.

The wine is made according to the traditional method. By maturing the wine for many months on lie to mature (on the lees), it has gained a special depth and character. The result is a refined, expressive bouquet full of floral and fruity notes. A celebratory reflection of our Zeeland terroir.

This sophisticated sparkling cuvée has its origins in the historic plots of Moestuin and De Bogerd. For this wine, we made a deliberate choice: the Chardonnay grapes were harvested exclusively from the vines rooted in the young marine clay. This specific soil gives the wine its unique, mineral character and Zeeland signature.

Following the traditional method, this wine has been given all the time it needs to settle. By ageing the wine for many months sur lie (on the lees), a rich complexity has developed with an elegant bubble. The result is a powerful yet refined reflection of our terroir.

This special sparkling cuvée tells the story of two striking plots: Clos and Driehoek. The De Driehoek plot owes its name to its characteristic geometric shape, a unique landmark in our Zeeland landscape.

In addition, we find Clos, a name that refers to the French tradition of walled vineyards. Our ‘wall’ is a natural barrier: a dense hedge of black alders that tenderly borders the plot. This green shelter creates a warm microclimate in which our red grape varieties can ripen to their full potential in peace and quiet and under the most favourable conditions.

This wine has been crafted with the utmost precision using the traditional method. By [leaving] the wine for many months on lie to mature (on the lees), has developed a refined complexity and a powerful mousse. A sparkling wine that carries the warmth and character of its origin in every bubble.

The grapes for the Rosé Brut are traditionally foot-treaded.
