A Family Winery
The Gloire de Duras wine estate is in Wilderen (Sint-Truiden), in the heart of the Haspengouw region. I, Peter Nijskens, am a winemaker and full-time fruit grower. The Gloire de Duras wine estate is a true family project. My wife Hilde, my three children Laura, Gert-Jan and Isaline and I are trying to make our wine estate a beautiful place.
The Grapes
Our wine estate produces white wines and sparkling wines only. Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Auxerrois were planted for the first time in 2015. The grapes were first harvested in 2016. Riesling was planted in 2017. One of the Riesling sites is in the old kitchen garden at Duras Castle. It is unique, in that the vines grow in a walled garden. The walled garden has its own micro-climate. In 2019 we extended again by planting Pinot Gris and Auxerrois. The latter variety is located around the wine-tasting pavilion in our Haspengouw wine estate. At present we have 7 hectares of grapes or some 28 000 vines. Our vineyards are in Haspengouw, more particularly Wilderen and Duras (Sint-Truiden). A few of the vineyards are in Halle-Booienhoven (Flemish-Brabant).

Nice wines, good explanation. Nice variation from dry to sweet. There is nothing forced to buy, which I think is a plus.
