Robert, whose family is originally from Hungary, was born in Canada and grew up on a farm. After some years working as an architect, he found his passion in winemaking, and relocated to his grandparent's country to start a winery.

This is what Sauvignon Blanc from the volcanic soils of Szent György Hill can do when fermented in steel tanks and aged on fine lees. It is a perfect and classic cool climate example of Sauvignon Blanc with very gentle notes of fresh grass and green peppers, accompanied by savoury herbed aromas. The palate is bright and crisp with ripe citrus - lemon and lime.

Pair this Sauvignon Blanc with light salads and fish dishes.

91 points - John Szabo, MS

All stainless, and clean and fresh on the nose and palate, far more savoury than fruity, with roasted herb character, tonic and herbal, sapid and saline. I can't call this classic sauvignon; varietal character is superseded by the regional saltiness typical of wines from the volcanic north shores of Lake Balaton. Great purity and very good depth, with a genuine sense of place, and while acids are sharp, there's no hardness or angularity. Tasted July 2023.
