Budapest Founded in 1989
Family winery with 50 years of experience, three wine regions, blending tradition and innovation
About the winery
Lics Pincészet is a nearly 50-year-old Hungarian family winery founded by László Lics and his wife Éva in 1989. The winery is built on its own vineyards, which span approximately 70 hectares across two renowned wine regions: Szekszárd and the Etyek-Buda region near Pákozd. Premium Hungarian wines, created by combining traditional and innovative methods, are aged in the historic Budafok cellar, one of Budapest's most famous wine-producing centers.
The winery's mission is to offer quality Hungarian wines directly from the estate. Production from its own vineyards and decades of professional expertise ensure each wine's unique character and high quality. The Pákozd event terrace and Budafok cellar tastings provide authentic experiences for wine enthusiasts.
