EGERVIN

This large company, which has preserved ancient Hungarian grape varieties, produces wines from several vineyards in the region. It markets some old vintages of Bull Blood that prove that this wine has had better time before the collectivist organisation of the vinification undertaken by the Communist regime in 1970. A collection of old wines rests in the depths of the cellar of the Bishop. The best is currently a 1964 leányka (a-year-old girl!). Please note, for the anecdote, that the cellars of Egervin are located beneath the cemetery. It is apparently good for wine! In the shadow of the giant Egervin, there are a few small producers who have made a long way to revive quality wine.
