Description

Winery

Garamvári Estate is a true family business, currently run by three generations. The story of Garamvári begins in the mid-1960s when Wenceslas graduated as an oenologist and started his career at one of Hungary’s largest sparkling wine producers. In 1990, he left the company as a commercial director and joined forces with a group of enthusiastic and innovative partners to establish Vinarium, a company focused on representing premium wines and their marketing. However, it wasn’t long before they decided to venture into producing their own wines, both sparkling and still. Thus, in 1993, the first vineyards were acquired on the southern shores of Lake Balaton, not far from the village of Balatonlelle, where they remain to this day. In 1996, Garamvári also acquired a cellar on the western bank of Budapest. After a thorough renovation, this became an excellent temperature-controlled facility of almost 5000m2 for producing the sparkling Garamvári wines. The still variants are all made at the house on Lake Balaton.

Wenceslas and Zsuzsanna are still closely involved in the business, and they take pride in the solid foundation they have laid for the next generations. Their pursuit of innovation has propelled Garamvári Estate forward, while simultaneously cherishing the important traditions that contribute to the unique quality of their wines.
