Handcrafted Somló Juhfark – family tradition on two hectares
About the winery
For nearly six decades, the Szabó family has cultivated vineyards on the southwestern slopes of Somló, where their two-hectare estate spreads across high-altitude, basalt soil terraces. The family produces wines using handcrafted methods and chemical-free soil management, earning recognition among the region's finest producers.
The winery's dominant grape variety is juhfark, which yields uniquely exceptional wines in this terroir. Olaszrizling, Velteleni, and Zengő are also grown on their vineyard. Most wines undergo traditional wooden barrel aging in their cellar, positioned at 250 meters elevation, where average temperatures remain below 12°C even in summer.
The winery's award-winning wines have received outstanding ratings from Borkalauz. Wine tasting and cellar visits are available by prior arrangement.
