Bencze Birtok
Near Lake Balaton around Szent György-hegy you will find the Hungarian legendary biodynamic winery, which was founded in 2011 by István Bencze. It manages about 20 hectares of old and newly planted vineyards organically, emphasizing both the local typical varieties (Furmint, Hárslevelű or Kéknyelű) and the newly bred varieties with which it likes to experiment. In terms of processing, its wines are not clarified, filtered or sulfurized. Most of the wines underwent at least a short maceration on the skins and matured in various clay amphorae.
