Wijndomein De Boe
Our rating: 7/10
A lovely, juicy Chardonnay from Zeeland. Plenty of yellow fruit and stone fruit with hints of vanilla, honey and toast. The wine is still young and needs some aging.

Apostelhoeve
Our rating: 8/10
A very special Viognier, a completely atypical flavor for this grape. We attribute this to the cool climate and young vines. The nose is primarily vegetal, but also reveals notes of muscat and honey. On the palate, after a very reductive start (swirl it a lot or let it sit open for a while!), flavors of yellow and stone fruit, along with creamy notes of battonage.

Wijngaard Hesselink
Our rating: 9/10
A magnificent wine, made of 100% Regent grapes: powerful with lovely notes of port wine and sweet black tea. The wine has tension, beautiful acidity, and tannins and a fine balance. This is something very special and exciting for the Netherlands!
