The historical origin of Tűzkő Birtok

The traditional estate is located in the idyllic village of Bátaapáti, in the midst of the Hungarian hilly landscape. The proud history of this house began back in 1799. For a long time, the development of these special vineyards was shaped by the influence of the noble Apponyi family. Today, the estate benefits from a close partnership with the world‑renowned winery Marchesi Antinori. A historic cellar from the eighteenth century has been providing optimal conditions for wine maturation for over three hundred years. We value the deep roots in regional culture in every single bottle.

Regional characteristics of Tűzkő Birtok

The vineyards extend over a large area of a total of one hundred and seventy hectares in the Tolna wine-growing region. The vines thrive at an average altitude of around two hundred meters above sea level. The local microclimate benefits greatly from the surrounding cool forests and the shimmering lakes in the area. The average temperature here is about two degrees lower than in the rest of the region. This cool environment preserves the lively freshness and delicate aromas in the ripening grapes.
