Supporting Sustainable Producers

Dynamic Wine Selection & Dining Experience

The wine list at ëlgr is dynamic, featuring small-scale, organic, and natural producers, along with the practices of larger-scale wineries. The food and wine lists are subject to monthly changes, ensuring a fresh and evolving dining experience.

Wine Recommendations

Van de Vyver encourages patrons to be adventurous and explore wines from small producers. However, the wine choice ultimately depends on personal preferences and the accompanying dish.
