Tóth Ferenc Winery

The Tóth Ferenc Winery can bravely be called a family winery as through generations, young and old members of the winemaker family have worked together passionately to bring forward the good reputation of the winery and the wines of Eger. When it comes to wine-making, our aim is to preserve the old, traditional taste and flavour palate of Eger, and to combine the most modern technologies with the traditional ones. The estate and our winery is characterized by the fact that we do everything from grape planting to wine bottling, so we keep the whole process under our control. Grape processing is done by conventional and reductive methods. Most of the white wines are made with directed fermentation. After the fermentation, red wines are kept in conventional oak barrels for 1.5 to 2 years and then another half a year in bottles before we present them. (www.winesofhungary.hu)

One of the oldest family owned wineries in the Eger wine district, Tóth Ferenc Winery was established in 1983 by ’Uncle Feri’. In recognition of his work, in 2018 he was elected “Viticulturist of the Year 2017 in Eger”. In 2005 a new generation has joined the estate, the daughter and son-in-law of Ferenc Tóth. In the following years, besides many investments and developments, Katalin has gradually taken over the operative management of the winery. Today they produce top quality wines especially from two local varieties, Leányka and Kadarka. They also excel with the two iconic, traditional blends of the region, Egri Csillag and Egri Bikavér wines at three different quality levels.
