Wijndomein Haksberg

What Wijndomein Haksberg does

Wijndomein Haksberg is a privately held Belgian wine estate operating on a 20-hectare domain at Kasteelweg 4, Tielt-Winge, in the Hageland region of Flemish Brabant. The current operation was relaunched in September 2012 after the original 2003 Wijnkasteel Haksberg venture ceased in 2006; vineyards have since been replanted with traditional varieties (Dornfelder, Auxerrois, Pinot Noir) and, from 2016, with mildew-resistant varieties Souvignier Gris and Muscaris. Winemaking is led by Hilde Rutten and is grounded in hand-tended, hand-harvested viticulture on ironstone terroir, low-temperature fermentation, and integrated pest management without herbicides.

The estate produces a four-style portfolio—white, rosé, red, and sparkling wines—and combines it with experiential and hospitality services: approximately two-hour guided tours and tastings (in Dutch, French, and English), wine workshops, a seasonal Zomerbar (summer bar) operating May through September, and the historic Wijnkasteel and Wijnhuis, which function as both event venues (weddings, corporate events, private parties) and a vacation rental property. Sales, visits, and bookings are handled by Jeffrey De Schutter via phone, email, and a Squarespace-hosted multilingual website.

Revenue is generated through four channels: direct on-site and contact-based wine sales, professional guided tour and tasting fees, event venue rental, and seasonal summer-bar beverage sales. Distribution is exclusively direct-to-consumer and domestic to Belgium, with no disclosed third-party retail, wholesale, or e-commerce channel. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and must be obtained by contacting the winery directly.
