Pendits Biodynamic Estate

As a Hungarian I have always been dreaming of having a winery in the Tokaj region. After the fall of socialism our family acquired 1991 the famous cellars of Flórián Bilicki in Abaújszántó. Regarded as the gateway to the region, Abaújszántó was formerly the second largest town and commercial center in the area. Over the years we have bought vineyard acreage in some of the best growing areas, a total of 8 hectares by now. The prize property of the estate is the PENDITS at Abaújszántó, one of the uniquely gifted vineyards of the Tokaj appellation. Partly on account of its special micro-climate and southern exposure, this vineyard was mentioned among the first growths in the 1867 Tokaj-Hegyalja Album, the definitive survey of “The Tokaj Foothills”. Believing that quality is created in the vineyard and honed in the cellar, we aim at crafting wines that will faithfully express the character of the region, the grapes, and the vintage year. Since 2005 we have been cultivating our vines organically without pesticides, herbicides and commercial fertilizers, our estate is the first certified organic winery in the Tokaj region (2008). Furthermore, we are the first biodynamic winery in Hungary certified by Demeter (2011), in 2012 we became member in Renaissance des Appellations of Nicolas Joly.
