In 2001, Wijnhoeve De Kleine Schorre was born in Zeeland. A strict selection of grapes has been made in collaboration with the renowned Luxembourg wine company Cep d'Or. The choice of grape varieties is based on a number of criteria. One of these is that the wines must connect seamlessly with the good that Zeeland has been offering for many years, namely the Zeeuwse Zilte beatitudes. These salty delights consist of: mussels, Eastern Scheldt lobster, oysters, flatfish, sea lavender and samphire. The choice of grape varieties has therefore fallen on the Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Rivaner and Auxerrois.
Currently 54,000 vines have already been planted. The vineyard has grown to 12 hectares, making it one of the largest vineyards in the Netherlands. The cellar and the trial area are housed in the barn of the Wijnhoeve. When it is time for the harvest, the Wijnhoeve relies on volunteers to pick the grapes. The grapes are processed with the greatest care in the cellar on the site.
