Past, tradition, continuity – The winemaking heritage of the Veszprém Diocese in a bottle
About the winery
Veszprémi Érseki Pincészet continues the seven-hundred-year winemaking tradition of the Veszprém Diocese. The ecclesiastical estate, uniquely unchanged in ownership since its foundation in 1277, has cultivated wine continuously through the centuries. Two distinctive locations – Felsőörs and Mindszentkálla – form the foundation of unique wine families where terroir diversity meets contemporary cellar craft.
The 18-hectare Felsőörs estate, situated in the Balatonfüred-Csopak wine region, yields elegant and fresh wines from its limestone-dolomite soils and proximity to Lake Balaton. The 7-hectare Mindszentkálla property in the Balaton Uplands, diocesan property since 1277, produces deep and mineral-driven wines from volcanic soil and distinctive microclimate. The winery's wines are crafted with respect for tradition and modern winemaking expertise.
