Sebestyen Szekszard

The Sebestyén winery was established in 1998 in Szekszárd, one of Hungary’s best winemaking regions with viticultural history dating back to Roman times. Run by brother and sister team Csilla and Csaba, the duo farm 13 hectares of predominantly old vines. They focus on indigenous varieties such as Kadarka and Kékrankos alongside varietals such as Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Using the template of Burgundy, the duo aims to reinterpret the traditional, regional Bikavér wine (Bull’s Blood) for the 21st century.

Szekszard

Szekszárd is a wine region in southern Hungary. Szekszárd’s climate is shaped by a variety of factors. Atlantic and Mediterranean both have decisive impacts, while continental factors and the Danube’s tempering effect also play roles. Summers are generally long and hot and are often followed by a warm Indian summer, meaning that even late-ripening red varieties can reach full ripeness in Szekszárd’s benevolent climate.
