A family winery with 180 years of tradition, guided by father-and-son Grgo and Andrija Vasilj. Today the winery has 22 hectares of vines in the Mostar wine region, producing around 80,000 litres of wine each year. The winery name Carska Vina (which means Imperial Wine) was inspired by the region’s historical connections to the Austro-Hungarian era when wines from Herzegovina were served at the emperor’s table in Vienna. The indigenous varieties: Blatina (red) and Žilavka (white) are the main focus of the winery, alone and in blends with international grapes.
A family winery with beginnings in 1999, run by Dr Lőrincz György and his son Lőrincz György
Jnr who believe that Eger is one of the most
exciting wine regions of Hungary. They farm 45 hectares across 9 plots, growing as many as 20
varieties, and focus on blends that showcase the
terroir – especially in their exciting new wave
premium Bikavér reds that show that this
legendary wine can be world-class (they won Decanter Bestin Show in 2021). They say, “We are grateful that we have the chance to grow grapes here. We would like to create terroir-specific, characterful wines based on
tradition with modern quality winemaking. Old
local varieties, like Olaszrizling, Hárslevelű,
Furmint, Kadarka and Kékfrankos take priority here. We seek to know more about our terroirs and
parcels, to improve our cultivation....and put our heart and soul into understanding the essence of our passion.”
