About the winery
The Babits family's Tokaj winemaking tradition stretches back to the time of King Béla IV, when Italian settlers arrived to introduce modern viticulture. Today, the family's vineyards are rooted in the volcanic soils of the Zempléni Mountains, across the Szegi Poklos, Olaszliszka Vay, and Tolcsva Kincsem vineyard blocks.
Following traditional methods, the winery produces the world's unique Tokaji Aszú and Szamorodni wines, where botrytized grapes are harvested berry by berry. Aging takes place in 17th and 18th-century cellars lined with noble mold, where constant temperatures of 10-12°C maintain ideal conditions in chambers hewn from rhyolitic tuff.
The winery's mission is to craft wines of exceptional quality and revive winemaking culture, guided by both traditional oxidative and reductive techniques.
