Description

Landgoed Overst Voerendaal is located in the beautiful rolling hills between Voerendaal and Ubachsberg. Since 2003, a total of 11,000 vines have been planted. The grape varieties Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir and the Muller Thürgau thrive in this landscape.
The calcareous soil and temperate climate provide ideal growing conditions for these vines.
Different wines are made by the winegrower such as:
  • Rosé: A soft, supple wine that can be drunk young. 
  • Red wine from the well-known Pinot Noir grape. This makes a beautiful smooth wine, which can also be drunk young. 
  • White wine from the Müller-Thurgau. These grapes are harvested manually and yield a fresh, fruity dry white wine that can be drunk young. 
  • O\\\' Secco is a Cuvee composed of selected grapes from the varieties Auxerrois 65%, Pinot Gris 20% and Muller Thürgau 15%. This wine is a lightly sparkling white wine, which can be enjoyed on the terrace or as an aperitif. 
At the Aldenborgh wine estate, organic cultivation is practiced. On this vineyard you have a beautiful view over the hilly landscape of Limburg.
The grapes grow in perfect dialogue with nature, preserving essential flavours.
You can taste the purity of taste in the excellent quality of the grapes in Eyser's wine.
