Rezi Balaton Uplands wine district Founded in 2015
Authentic Lake Balaton wines from a family winery
About the winery
The Bakos family has cultivated grapes and made wine for generations. Rezső Bakos, the head winemaker, created his first wine at just nine years old and now crafts wines with considerable experience and passion on the Rezi vineyard slopes. On approximately 2 hectares, 8 kilometres from Lake Balaton, they grow grapes using organic farming methods.
The winery employs modern techniques to direct fermentation while remaining committed to traditional winemaking. Their production features aged and barrel-aged red wine specialities. At wine competitions, Rezső Bakos regularly receives gold ratings, and his work is distinguished by numerous awards and certificates.
As a product of a musician family, their wines are individually named, with labels reflecting family heritage and tradition. They warmly welcome guests to the wine cellar for tastings and culinary experiences.
