Terroir
Natural factors
- Flevoland consists mainly of Holocene marine clay over sand or peat, forming the basic soil structure of the region.
- In the Noordoostpolder the same soil type occurs, but the topsoil locally contains peat or boulder clay (keileem).
- These polders came into existence in the twentieth century through the drainage of parts of the IJsselmeer.
- The area receives an average annual rainfall of 850 mm and records 1,678 sunshine hours per year, as measured in Lelystad.
- The average annual temperature is 9.8 °C, with an average summer temperature of 16.7 °C and a diurnal temperature range in September of 8.4 °C.
Terroir / wine link
- The climate makes it possible to achieve the stated yields and ripeness levels, and that ripeness expresses itself in a fresh, full-fruited white wine with green notes, and in red fruit characters for the red wine.
