Orange wines and quality Balaton wines from the Essence House – where Lake Balaton flavours come to life

About the winery

Dézsma Pince is a family winery, relaunched in 2007, nestled in one of the oldest and most beautiful parts of Balatonszárszó, on Ebhegy Hill. The name of the cellar derives from its 17th-century origins, when it served as a tithe cellar for Tihany Abbey. Owner Zoltán Szabó, following his family's centuries-long Balaton heritage, carefully tends 2 hectares of vineyard (Furmint, Hárslevelű, Olasz Rizling, Merlot, Cabernet Franc) throughout the year.

The winery blends traditional and innovative methods: in the 17th-century stone cellar, red wines mature in barrique barrels and flexcube tanks, while white and rosé wines are produced using reductive-cold techniques in a converted mill building housing the Essence House. Wine names often reflect their lives and surroundings: Szárszónak is 1 a vége, Szemesnek áll a világ, Földvár felé, and Elizabeth&Tailor.

They produce approximately 10,000–12,000 bottles annually. Dézsma Pince's signature offering is orange wine – skin-contact white wines where red winemaking technique meets white wine elegance. The Essence House operates a tasting venue (Drink&Shop) welcoming both groups and individual travellers for tastings.
