The Kleine Schorre Schouwen-Duiveland Gris is a white wine made from 100% Pinot Gris grapes. The grapes thrive on the calcareous Zeeland soil of the De Kleine Schorre vineyard in Dreischor, making this wine a unique expression of the terroir of Schouwen-Duiveland.
The nose is filled with a varied palette of aromas. The primary aromas of citrus fruit, such as grapefruit and lemon, mingle with hints of peach, apricot and honey. Bottle aging adds complexity with notes of toast, vanilla and smokiness.
The taste is powerful and round, with a pleasant acidity that preserves the freshness of the wine. The fruity notes from the nose are reflected in the taste, supplemented by mineral nuances that are typical of the Zeeland terroir. The aftertaste is long and elegant, with a subtle salty touch that reflects the origin of the wine.

In 2001, Wijnhoeve De Kleine Schorre was born in Zeeland. A strict selection of grapes has been made in collaboration with the renowned Luxembourg wine company Cep d'Or. The choice of grape varieties is based on a number of criteria. One of these is that the wines must connect seamlessly with the good that Zeeland has been offering for many years, namely the Zeeuwse Zilte beatitudes. These salty delights consist of: mussels, Eastern Scheldt lobster, oysters, flatfish, sea lavender and samphire. The choice of grape varieties has therefore fallen on the Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Rivaner and Auxerrois.
Currently 54,000 vines have already been planted. The vineyard has grown to 12 hectares, making it one of the largest vineyards in the Netherlands. The cellar and the trial area are housed in the barn of the Wijnhoeve. When it is time for the harvest, the Wijnhoeve relies on volunteers to pick the grapes. The grapes are processed with the greatest care in the cellar on the site.
