A must do for natives of Holland and tourists

I had a wonderful experience at the Dutch Wine Tasting. The selection of wines was excellent, and the atmosphere was welcoming, relaxed, and enjoyable. What truly made the experience stand out was our host, Michael. He was exceptional, knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about wine. Michael took the time to explain each wine in a way that was both informative and easy to understand, making the tasting enjoyable for beginners and wine enthusiasts alike. His enthusiasm and attention to detail created a memorable experience. I highly recommend this wine tasting to anyone looking for a fun, educational, and well-organized event. Thank you, Michael, for an outstanding experience!

Operator response

What a lovely review! Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. It means a lot to us to hear that you enjoyed it so much. Kind regards, Michiel and the Design & Wijn Team

Brilliant afternoon

Diederik was our host this evening in the best quaint wine shop. The wine tasting room is in a hidden area and was very cool. He had so much knowledge and was truly passionate about his craft. We had a great afternoon. There was only 4 of us over all, it was very personal and relaxed. The tasting went on for a couple hours and it was a very lovely afternoon out of the snow. Wines were great, would recommend.

Operator response

Dear Kerry_M, Thank you so much for this nice and honest review. That is how we want to have it. Good to read that you have experienced it in this way. Hopefully until next time! Kind regards, Diederik Walhof

A Disappointing Wine Tasting — Not Worth the Hype

I had very high expectations for the Dutch Winetasting Amsterdam City Centre, but unfortunately it was a major letdown. The wines offered were mediocre — nothing stood out in flavor, and some were flat and uninspiring. The venue was cramped and uncomfortable, with too many people squeezed in. The host seemed disinterested and gave minimal background on the wines; I felt like I was on autopilot rather than being guided through a proper tasting. Given the price and the hype, this experience was far below what I anticipated. I left feeling disappointed and would not recommend this to fellow wine enthusiasts visiting Amsterdam.

Operator response

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to read that this was your experience of our wine tasting. To be honest, we do not recognize ourselves in this at all. As the owner, I personally give the winetastings with pleasure and make sure it is never too crowded or uncomfortable. We are very selective with the wines we serve. Flat or uninspiring wines absolutely never make it through our selection. We always prefer when guests share their feedback directly with us, so that we can clarify or adjust things immediately. Of course, leaving an online review is also an option, but we would much rather end on a cheerful note 🍷. After each tasting, we ask our guests about their experience, and we are certain that a one-star impression would definitely have been mentioned. If you really did visit us (which we strongly doubt), you are, of course, very welcome to come by again and experience it anew.

A truly amazing experience from start to finish! Walking through the beautiful shop through the secret door to the wine tasting room. The wines were amazing and paired with local cheese and breads. Would go back to do it again.

Operator response

Dear 680jodieh, Thank you very much for sharing your personal experience with us. So good to read that you liked the whole Dutch wine experience with us. Looking forward welcoming you again in the future. Kind regards, Diederik

Great experience learning about Dutch wines

We had a wonderful experience at our tasting of Dutch wines. Great atmosphere and beautiful tasting room. We had the charcuterie board and appreciated the suggested pairings with the wines. The wines were good quality, very knowledgeable about Dutch wines overall. Highly recommend.

Lovely wine tasting!

This was such a nice hidden gem! The staff is AMAZING and so sweet and the wine is very nice. We don’t know much about wine but everything was explained very well and any questions we had were happily answered. The vibes are also super relaxed and easy going

Operator response

Dear emiliepU8285FU, Thanks so much for your lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the wines and felt comfortable asking questions — that’s exactly the experience we hope to create. Great to hear you loved the relaxed vibes, too. We’d love to welcome you back anytime at Design & Wijn! Kind regards, Diederik

Great introduction to Dutch Wines and fantastic pairings!

Diederik was our guide and he was fantastic. He was juggling between us and a group of five in the room so sometimes the time between tastings was a bit slow, but honestly it was relazing and it was the last thing we had planned that day so we didn't mind. This is our introductoin into Dutch wines as we were (and still largely are) unfamiliar. But not only did we get to try and learn to understand the five wines we were tasting, but we learned more about the wine production process in the Netherlands and what regions are responsible for which wines. They use a lot of steel, which in interesting, though we also had some that was blended with more "traditional" barrel aged wine. Diederik walked us through the pairings as well, advising us what to eat with which wine, which significantly improved the experience. This was educationl, fun, tasty, and relaxing. Highly recommend.

Operator response

Hello Joshua, thank you for this great review and the feedback. I'll keep that in mind when doing multiple tables! I am very happy that you enjoyed the tasting and to read how you experienced it overall. All the best! Diederik

What a great experience!

This is really the only place you can go and try all Dutch wines. It's all they do. We tried 6 wines and had a lovely charcuterie platter. The new tasting room is in a speakeasy style room behind a hidden door, which I loved!! Our host/one of the owners knew so much about the wine and was so gracious. We had a really great time and I'm so glad I found this experience! Highly recommend.

Operator response

Dear 11kittiesthensomefun, Thank you very much for this review. So good to hear that you really liked the Dutch Wines. Rose is happy to read that you loved the speakeasy style room behind the hidden door. Thank again and till next time! Kind regards, Diederik

Great experience, a lot learned!

The wine tasting session was as informative as it was enjoyable, Dietrich had an extensive knowledge of both the processes involved in growing the grapes as well as how the various types of wine were made. He offered advice for the tasting experience and answered any and all questions eagerly. Most importantly though, my wife and I were visiting as a couple and though there was a larger group there, Dietrich took the time to do each tasting separately so we felt like he has his attention and input as much as the larger group.

Operator response

Dear Adam S, Thank you so much for your nice words! We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed the tasting and that I made it both informative and personal. I always love sharing my passion for wine and create a relaxed and intimate experience, even with a larger group around. It means a lot to know that you and your wife felt well taken care of—we always want our guests to feel like they're the center of attention. Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back for another glass (or two!) in the future! Kind regards, Diederik
