About the winery
Horváth Borászat is a family winery operating on nearly three hectares in the Sopron wine region, with vineyard parcels on the shores of Lake Fertő, in the Balfi slopes, Virágvölgy valley and Harka hills. With forty years of tradition in viticulture and winemaking, they follow their guiding principle of "quality in measure" in every activity.
Since 2011 they have been practicing organic cultivation, and from 2020 all their vineyard areas have been converted to organic farming. Their vineyards feature both traditional regional varieties – Furmint and Sárga muskotály characteristic of Sopron – and international cultivars including Pinot noir, Kékfrankos, Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet franc, Syrah and Viognier.
Under the direction of Imre, a qualified wine-growing engineer, wines are aged in traditional oak and acacia barrels as well as stainless steel tanks. Wine tastings for 5-30 guests can be arranged at their cellar, featuring up to 10 wines. Their work has been recognized at regional and national competitions, with their "Corvinus cuvée" receiving international acclaim.
