The vintners at Uitvlucht Winery do their utmost to ensure that suitable cultivars are placed in the right soil under unique micro-climatic conditions, thus producing premium grapes to be converted into quality wines: full-bodied red wines, crisp dry and fruity off-dry whites, port, a full-sweet Muscadel and a sparkling wine.

Be sure to visit the renovated reception and wine tasting area of the cellar, situated on the outskirts of Montagu.
