Are you interested in wine? Or just an enthusiast? Cruise the Amstel River in style on our salon boat to a wine tasting. The top vintners at Maison Vinocerf in Uithoorn will tell you all about grape varieties and preparation methods. An educational and tasty experience!
Below Uithoorn, where the Amstel River splits into the Drecht and Kromme Mijdrecht, in a green setting lies Fort aan de Drecht. This particular fortress is home to Maison Vinocerf. In summer and winter, the stone fortress offers the perfect temperature for storing wines. A lot of connoisseurs have therefore housed their collections there.
During the arrangement wine tasting on the Amstel, Maison Vinocerf will present you with wines that come mainly from small-scale, driven wine farmers. The tasting can focus on “learning to taste wine,” but also, for example, on wine production, the wine-food combination or a specific wine country.
The Fort along the Drecht is one of the many forts of the Defence Line of Amsterdam, the line of defense built around the capital between 1880 and 1914. The idea was to flood the surrounding land outside that ring in such a way that it was too deep for men and horses, but too shallow for ships.
The package Wine Tasting on the Amstel can be customized in many ways. We provide an example below of what your afternoon might look like. Please contact us for more ideas.
