Kreinbacher

The Kreinbacher winery is one of the newest, and definitely the most state-of-the-art winery in Somló. The tiny wine region lies on the site of an extinct volcano, and produces some of Hungary’s most interesting white wines. Kreinacher’s modern winery building blends in organically with the slope of the hill, imitating the lava that once flowed down the side of the former volcano. Instead of one large vineyard, Kreinbacher grows grapes on 198 different, sometimes tiny plots of land. All grapes are grown organically, and maximum care is taken towards the wine with every step of the winemaking process. The winery is also quickly becoming a pioneer in producing sparkling wine using the traditional method in Hungary.
