Wijnhuis De Blauwe Camer — Restaurant in Oosterhout

The Norbertine sisters of the priory of Sint-Catharinadal have lived on the De Blauwe Camer estate in Oosterhout since 1647. In 2014 the sisters planted a vineyard, now around 10 hectares with Chardonnay, Auxerrois, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Muscat Ottonel, Pinot Noir and Gamay, among others. They are helped by volunteers and a consultant winemaker.

In the old farmhouse next to the convent, Wijnhuis De Blauwe Camer has been open since 2018: a restaurant with its own vegetable and herb garden. You can drink the convent's wines there, alongside wines from elsewhere, and take bottles home. Recommended for lunch or dinner among the vineyards, close to Breda.
