Betuws Wijndomein — Winery in Erichem

On a former arable farm in Erichem, close to Buren and the river Linge, the first hectare of vines was planted in 2004. Today, with some 7 hectares and over 21,000 vines, the Betuws Wijndomein is one of the largest vineyards in the Netherlands. Only disease-resistant varieties are grown, such as Johanniter, Solaris, Souvignier Gris, Muscat Bleu, Regent and Pinotin. Around 70 per cent of the wine is white.

The vineyard can be visited all year round: you can walk, taste wine and buy bottles in the shop, and there are chairs made from old wine barrels between the rows. Guided tours with tasting are available by appointment. Recommended for a day out in the Betuwe, combined with the small fortified town of Buren.
