Hoeve Nekum

Hoeve Nekum is a winemaking estate in the Jekerdal region near Maastricht. The property sits on sloping terrain where several grape varieties grow and is anchored by a stone farmhouse structure from the 18th century with protected monument status.

The farmhouse dates to 1783 and preserves its original layout with a central courtyard structure. In recent decades, the land was revived for wine production and reconnected to the broader agricultural traditions of the Mergelland region.

The place carries its name from local tradition and represents how winemaking fits into Limburgian rural life. Visitors walk through an active vineyard and see how the property serves both as a working estate and a destination where local wine culture is still practiced.

The estate welcomes visitors on certain days when you can purchase wines and walk the grounds. Arriving during daylight hours lets you see the vineyard slopes and the old buildings clearly, and you may want to call ahead to confirm current visiting arrangements.

This small winemaker gained national attention when bottles from the vineyard were served at a royal celebration. The recognition shows how regional wine production earned respect far beyond local markets.
