Káptalantóti Badacsony wine district Founded in 1994
Two passions – music and winemaking – in one place on Bács Hill
About the winery
Szörényi Családi Pince is rooted in the volcanic basalt soil of the Badacsony region. Levente, a Kossuth Prize-winning composer, discovered this location in 1994 where he could pursue both his passion for music composition and winemaking. Since 1996, family work continues on the Bács Hill vineyards, tended by Levente and his son Örs with their own hands.
The winery has bottled wine for family consumption since 1999, and received official permission for sales in 2018. The harvest is an important annual event for the family and friends. The wines' minimalist, hand-designed labels were created by Szörényi Réka, a family member.
Grape varieties
Current range
Olaszrizling
The oldest vineyard planted in 1996 on a southwest-facing plot. A classical wine with bitter almond flavour, pronounced minerality and defined acidity. Spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged in oak barrels.
Juhfark
A younger vineyard planted in 2000, complemented by one-quarter chardonnay. A wine with pronounced acidity, fine fruitiness and pronounced minerality. Spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks, then aged in new oak barrels.
Cabernet Sauvignon
Rosé made from Cabernet Sauvignon harvested from the south-facing slope of Badacsony. Inoculated with pure yeast, fermented in stainless steel using reductive methods, then aged for one month in new medium-toasted oak barrels.
Kéknyelű
The family winery planted Kéknyelű in 2021 to preserve tradition and out of love for the variety. Grapes from the north-facing slope of Badacsony were processed with gentle pressing. Inoculated with pure yeast, fermented in stainless steel, then aged in new oak barrels before bottling in late spring.
A gift from seven old pear trees. The wild pear brings pronounced aroma to this distinctive spirit. The pomace pálinka is made from gently pressed grapes of Olaszrizling, Juhfark and Chardonnay. 44% alcohol.
Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon-based pét nat available in commercial distribution since 2021. This ancient-method sparkling wine develops carbonation naturally during fermentation. An opalescent wine, extraordinarily rich in flavour and aroma, prominently displaying the terroir's characteristics.
