Göndör Családi Borászat

Göndör Családi Borászat operates in Tök, in the Etyek-Buda wine region, 25 km from Budapest. The family acquired a neglected 0.2-hectare parcel in 2004, which has since grown to 0.9 hectares through additional plantings. After nearly 15 years of self-taught learning, they now tend multiple grape varieties using organic cultivation, yield limitation, and no herbicides or insecticides.

From vineyard to cellar, their approach emphasises minimal intervention. The wines ferment spontaneously using local yeast strains where possible, without additives and with minimal sulphiting. White wines age in steel tanks, fuller-bodied reds in 1-3 year old barrique barrels. The resulting drinkable wines authentically reflect the terroir and the characteristics of each vintage.

In 2021, they created a self-service wine-by-the-glass counter beside their press house, operating 24 hours from spring through autumn. The wine terrace offers stunning views of the Buda Hills.
