Authentically showcasing the mineral character of the Káli region
About the winery
Káli Kövek Winery produces wines from the volcanic soils of the Balaton-felvidék region. Through careful fermentation and aging, their wines authentically express the distinctive mineral character of the Káli region alongside the specific traits of each grape variety.
Their work is guided by traditional and natural methods. In this complex, labor-intensive process, they rely fundamentally on the power and wisdom of nature. The winery operates with humility, simplicity, authenticity, and a commitment to quality.
Built upon the two-thousand-year winemaking tradition of the region, they work with grapes from volcanic witness hills. The roots grow in clay soils mixed with basalt debris and brown forest soils. The mineral-rich, tuffaceous soil structure—abundant in minerals and fossil remains—is reflected in the character of the wines.
