Somlóvásárhely Nagy-Somló wine district Founded in 2001
A multi-generational family winery on the south-eastern slopes of Somló
About the winery
Kolonics Pincészet is a multi-generational family winery located in the heart of the Somló wine region, in the Apátság vineyard district. The 9-hectare estate is planted with Olaszrizling, Juhfark, Hárslevelű, and Furmint, with wines made using classical traditional methods: yield restriction, barrel fermentation, and oak aging.
The winery operates with a 30,000-litre barrel capacity, with wines ageing for 1-3 years in the cellar before bottling. This meticulous work ensures the distinctive Somló character: rich minerality and complexity. The winery welcomes visitors for tastings, offers accommodation on the wine estate, and a restaurant is coming soon.
The family tradition began in 1986 when they received their first cellar as a gift. The first vintages were produced in 2001, and by 2008 they were exporting to 12 countries.
