Grapes, wine and Lake Balaton – Várszegi Winery in Budafok
About the winery
Várszegi Winery is a family-owned enterprise founded in 2010, building upon the winemaking traditions of the South Balaton wine region. Viktor developed his passion for winemaking in his grandfather's wine cellar from an early age. The winery cultivates grapes across 25 hectares in Balatonszemesen and Balatonlellén, where the loess-based soils provide excellent conditions for producing intensely fruity wines.
The winery's Budafok cellars are inherited from a 200-year tradition of sparkling wine production. These authentically restored historic spaces serve as aging and bottling facilities, recreating the genuine Budafok wine experience. By combining modern winemaking technology with respect for tradition, they create distinctive wines that deliver memorable drinking experiences.
