About the winery

L. Simon Borászat is a family winery located in Agárd beside Lake Velence. The family business has been managing vineyards and producing wine for several generations. The 20-hectare estate operates in the Etyek-Buda wine region, where the lake's proximity and favorable climate provide excellent growing conditions.

The 800-square-meter cellar, founded in 1999, was built from Sóskút limestone. Alongside modern reductive technology for white and rosé wines, traditional oak-aged reds are matured in a classic cellar section. The winery primarily processes its own cultivated grapes.
