Our Winery
Winery
Our vineyards are located within a six-kilometer radius of the winery in Balatonfüred, Balatonszőlős, Pécsely, Csopak and Tihany. On the currently thirty-hectare estate – in the spirit of terroir farming in the classical sense – we present the diversity of the wine region by treating the produce of our vineyards separately and working with strict yield restrictions.

Slopes
Száka, Gella, Öreghegy, Sóskút: old names, which origins are unknown. The typical slopes of this wine region are formed from time to time based on tradition, experience and observation. There is not a single slope which is familiar to the other. Different soil structure, microclimate, water supply discribes these areas, which makes the wines diverse. Take a little time to get to know these slopes!

“The grape is a wonderful plant. It is able to survive hard times, giving relief, faith, joy, comfort, hilarity, – and “pardon me” – nice bemusement to the exhausted vine-grower. However, besides respecting traditions, new ambitions, better technology and oenophiles – so-called “wine-lovers” are needed to provide some subsistence. Yes, we need friends of wine who feel and understand the work, the compositions, since good wines are finely orchestrated work of art. Good wines are silent and sound clear just like a gregorian chant fondling the cryptic silence of the cellars.”
