Savour a private tasting of estate-grown Zeeland wines paired with locally harvested Oosterschelde oysters at one of the Netherlands' most distinctive boutique vineyards, set on the tidal marshes just minutes from Bruinisse.
What to expect
De Kleine Schorre sits on the edge of the Oosterschelde tidal marshes, and on a clear day the view from the tasting terrace stretches across the delta to the horizon. The estate produces small-batch white, rosé, and sparkling wines from varieties perfectly suited to the maritime microclimate. A private tasting begins with a walk through the vineyard rows, where the owner explains the extraordinary terroir created by centuries of sea-clay deposit. You are then seated for a curated flight paired with briny Oosterschelde oysters, Zeeland mussels, and local artisan cheese. It is refined, unhurried, and deeply local.
Good to know
The vineyard is approximately 5 km from Bruinisse — a short taxi ride. Pre-book a private tasting slot directly by phone or email via the website; walk-ins are rarely possible in summer. Best visited late morning (11:00–13:00) to keep the afternoon free. Check seasonal opening days before confirming.
