Garamvári Estate is an authentic family-owned business that proudly spans three generations. Discover the unique story of this Hungarian winery, which traces its origins back to the mid-1960s when the passionate Wenceslas graduated as an oenologist and began his career at one of Hungary’s largest sparkling wine producers. In 1990, he took a bold step and left the company to collaborate with enthusiastic and innovative partners, founding Vinarium – a company focused on premium wines and their marketing. This daring venture went beyond mere wine representation; in 1993, Garamvári decided to produce its own wines, both sparkling and still. The first vineyards were acquired on the enchanting southern side of Lake Balaton, near the charming village of Balatonlelle, and to this day, the vineyards remain there. In 1996, Garamvári acquired a distinctive cellar on the western shore of Budapest. After thorough renovation, this place was transformed into an impressive, temperature-controlled facility of nearly 5000m2 for producing the sparkling Garamvári wines. The still variants continue to be lovingly made at the house by Lake Balaton. In the present day, Wenceslas and his wife Zsuzsanna are just as dedicated to the company as they were 24 years ago. During that time, they have laid a solid foundation upon which future generations can build with innovative developments. While embracing progress, Wenceslas closely oversees the ancient traditions that form the heart of Garamvári.
At Garamvári Estate, passion for tradition and craftsmanship intertwines with innovation and progress. This results in a unique experience that will continue to inspire future generations. Come and explore the beautiful world of Garamvári wines, infused with history and tradition, yet also focused on a promising future.
