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.
