During the time when the wine was mainly transported over the water, the wine trade specialized in Burgundy was mainly found in the towns along the Meuse. The Bordeaux wine was supplied at that time via the sea ports. Heusden was both sea and Maashaven at that time. As a result, Dutch wine lovers have been buying their Bordeaux and Burgundy in Heusden for more than four centuries.
