- Szekszárd - the most dynamically developing wine region of Hungary
The Szekszárd wine region is one of the oldest and most Southern red wine bearing areas in Hungary. It was the Celts who first established wine-growing in this region more than 2000 years ago.
Pope Pius, Schubert and Ferenc Liszt are only some of the innumerable famous people who have adored and consumed Kadarka from Szekszárd, which used to be the prevailing wine.
The vineyards are situated in closed valleys of sub- mediterranean micro climate and loessal soil providing a great variety and out-standing aptitude for red wine making.
Red wine grape, mainly Kékfrankos, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignion and Kadarka is grown on 80% of the wine region’s total of 2250 hectares. Pinot Noir and Syrah have become privileged lately.
Wine from Szekszárd shows a great variety, ranging from lighter and elegant to more heavy-bodied and robust red wines. Apart from being fruity, they are harmonious and spicy making them unique.
