Máté Varga

Our winemaker was born in Tolcsva, in Tokaj-Hegyalja. His love for wine and grapes started as a child, his family has been cultivating grapes for several generations. As a little boy, he only went to the vineyard to play, but as the years went by, playing around in the vineyard became a hobby.
He considers himself very lucky that his hobby has become his work.
The foothills of Tokaj have a great historical past and tradition in viticulture and winemaking.
His ultimate goal is to combine the experiences of the past with modern technology to make wonderful Aszú wines and to fully explore the huge potential of the dry wines of the region. With his wines he tries to honour the past, stand for the present and build the future.
It is a profession that requires continuous development as each vintage is full of new and exciting challenges.
