De Apostelhoeve is regarded as a true pioneer in Dutch winemaking. At a time when producing wine in the Netherlands was still considered impossible by many, the Hulst family laid the foundation for what would grow into an internationally respected winery. With its unique location on the Louwberg hill, its limestone rich soils and an unwavering focus on quality, De Apostelhoeve has played a major role in the development and recognition of Dutch wine.

In this episode, we talk about that rich history, the entrepreneurial mindset that was needed to put a Dutch vineyard on the map and the way knowledge and passion are passed down from one generation to the next. Mathieu and Robin speak openly about the family business, the balance between tradition and innovation and the changes they have witnessed in the wine world over the past decades. We also dive deeper into current developments in viticulture, the impact of climate change, the challenges facing the industry and the trends they believe will shape the future of wine.

A personal and in depth conversation about family, vision and the strength of Dutch wine, recorded among the rolling hills and vineyards of Maastricht.
