Dutch wine (Template:Langx) is wine made in the Netherlands. Although a small producer of wine, it is nowadays a strong and growing branch of Dutch agriculture. Currently, the country has 180 commercial vineyards.[1][2]
History
It is assumed that Romans who were used to bringing their crops along with them could have successfully planted grapevines in Maastricht, called Traiectum ad Mosam.
The first mention of viniculture in what is now the Netherlands dates back to 968.
Modern production of wine was started in the 1970s.[3]
Wine regions of the Netherlands
Most of the Dutch vineyards, collectively measuring 160 ha (2007), are to be found in the provinces of Gelderland and Limburg. In addition, there are vineyards in North Brabant, North Holland, Zeeland and more in northern Drenthe, Overijssel and Groningen.[citation needed]
Climate
Because of the unfavourable Dutch climate, the classic international grapes Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon are not planted on a large scale.[citation needed]
