Tokaj-Hétszőlő
The undisputed king of Hungarian vineyards, Mount Tokaj is located to the North of the country, 230 km east of Budapest. This legendary place produces exceptional wines, served at the court of Louis XIV, the latter said of Tokaj, it’s the “King of the Wines and The Wine of the Kings”. To the South side of Mount Tokaj, the Imperial Estate of Tokaj-Hétszőlő owns the most fertile land and the best vines, and since 1502 nature has given more generously of its fruits here than anywhere else. The creation of the estate owes nothing to chance: the Garai family simply selected the best 7 parcels of the Tokaj Mountain, hence the name: Hét-Szőlő means “7 parcels of vineyard” in Hungarian.
