#govolcanic

We are introducing wines from the volcanic and other exquisite growing areas of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire to the UK market. Besides selling these wines, our aim is to arouse interest in these world-class terroirs and the 2 millennia old wine-making traditions of the region. The participating wineries were selected and recommended by internationally acclaimed wine experts, with initially 10 wineries tasked to face this unusual challenge.

Somlói Borok Boltja

With a mission of purity and simplicity – without compromise, it is no wonder Somlói Apátsági Pincészet sells out of their wine completely… every year. The name comes from their land and beautiful old cellar having once belonged to an abbey. #govolcanic #volcanicwines #witnessmountainwines #somlo #sap #wine #hungary #zoltan

The J&J Eger Wine Co. was founded in 2004 by John Szabó, Canadian-Hungarian Master Sommelier and Dr. János Stumpf, Eger winegrower. Their mission is to produce an authentic reflection of Eger’s ancient wine traditions and flavours, no more, no less. Each vintage, out of several estate vineyards, that meet their expectations are selected for bottling under the J&J label. #govolcanic #volcanicwines #witnessmountainwines #eger #hungary
