Hungary’s most stunning vineyards of 2020
The winners of Hungary’s Most Beautiful Vineyards Awards were announced on September 29 in the Fióka Restaurant and Wine Bar.
The competition has been held every spring since 2012 by Bor és Piac (Wine and Market) magazine. Nearly 130 vineyards competed in the first round where the audience could vote on their favourites on borespiac.hu, reported Sokszínű Vidék.
The vineyards voted on by the audience were put into small, medium, and large vineyard categories, and three were picked in each category, which the expert judges then visited in person. The judges secretly voted in a 100-point system.
Szekszárd produced six out of the nine finalists and the winners in two categories. The third winner was from Tokaj.
The award ceremony was held at the Fióka Restaurant and Wine Bar, with a small number of people there because of the pandemic.
The winners:
- Small vineyard category: 1st place – Dobogó Pincészet (Tokaj), 2nd place – Tringa Borpince (Szekszárd), 3rd place – Cseri Pincészet (Nyúl, Pannonhalmi wine region)
- Medium vineyard category: 1st place – Eszterbauer Borászat, 2nd place – Vesztergombi Pince, 3rd place – Hetényi Pincészet (all Szekszárd)
- Large vineyard category: 1st place – Bodri Pincészet (Szekszárd), 2nd place – Koch Borászat (Borota, Hajós-Bajai wine region), 3rd place – Schieber Pincészet (Szekszárd)
