The Gelderland region, in the heart of the Netherlands, is renowned for its natural beauty, bucolic landscapes, and its growing role in contemporary viticulture. Although traditionally not associated with wine production, Gelderland takes advantage of its temperate climate and varied soils to cultivate grape varieties such as Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Müller-Thurgau. The mild winters and cool summers extend the ripening period of the grapes, allowing for the production of balanced and aromatic wines.
Gelderland’s vineyards are often small family-owned estates that emphasise sustainable, environmentally friendly production methods. This region is particularly notable for the innovation and enthusiasm of its winemakers, who experiment with new techniques to adapt to small-scale production. Wine enthusiasts can expect intimate vineyard tours and a warm welcome during tastings in this burgeoning region on the European wine scene.
The rise in quality of Gelderland wines represents an exciting opportunity for both beginners and seasoned wine lovers, offering a unique and unexpected experience of Dutch wines.
