The heart of the wine region, worth visiting
With heart, soul, and family: Our story among the vines
As the firstborn daughter, I discovered our ancestors while researching our family tree, those who understood the language of the land generations ago. Wine was always present at our table: weddings, christenings, the men’s weekly card games, or birthdays. Grandpa Feri and Grandpa Gyula were cultivating vines and making wine even when the opportunities were quite different, but the passion remained the same.
Those Who Complete the Picture
The Benkő Family and Our Estate
Sándor (My Father): Our foundation. Over 70 and still tending the vines with incredible diligence; his expertise and precision are the basis of every bottle we produce.
Aunt Teri (My Mother): The soul of the estate. Welcomes everyone with her homemade wine preserves, cakes, and a kind word, creating a homely atmosphere.
Balázs (My Husband): My partner in adventure. After 12 years of living in Budapest, we made the change; now he confidently conducts the harvest and winemaking.
Our Daughters: Our three little girls complete our everyday lives – they give meaning to our future.
About Me: I am Szilvi Benkő. I coordinate the daily operations, from background tasks to tastings. Although I'm happiest in the silence of the vineyard, I proudly take on every task because my heritage and family are part of this life.
