We think in wine styles, not grape varieties: fruity, spicy, low tannins, enjoyable length.

About the winery

Ruppert Winehouse is a family winery in Babarcszőlős, at the heart of the Villány wine region. Katus, Ákos, and Andris work together, each playing a vital role from vineyard to finished wine.

The ten-hectare vineyard sits on the south-facing slope at Diósviszló, where sparse morning mist, abundant sunshine, and cool nights ensure excellent acid balance. Production is rooted in organic cultivation: zero herbicides, minimal chemicals, maximum soil life. Grapes are carefully selected, hand-harvested, and meticulously prepared for winemaking. Throughout whole-bunch pressing, gentle fermentation, and aging, fruitiness and complexity remain the focus.

Chardonnay

Chardonnay

One of their favorite varieties, which also forms the basis of Zizzzi and Nyúl. When the vintage allows, they showcase it as a premium single-varietal wine. The goal is elegance, complexity, and full-bodied, rich character – with vibrant acidity. Fermented at higher temperature, then aged six months in 500-liter barrel on fine lees.
