The objective is to create outstanding wine. Grapes for such wines have to come from outstanding vineyards, like to volcanic and mineral vineyards in Badacsony.

The labels on the wines are very unique. Christer Sandahl, Owner, introduces a new concept with every Vintage. It is time to explore the beauty of Hungarian Riesling.
