The Figula Family Winery started business in 1993 in the Balaton-region also known as the gem of the Pannon area. In this particular region being rich in unique natural resources, dealing with viticulture and winemaking is a delightful task and a serious responsibility.
The wide variety of the plantations makes it possible to introduce both indigenous – i.e. a typical variety representation – and international grape varieties and to create exciting compositions by the brave application of blending and the application of different technologies.
„It is a wonderful experience to deal with viticulture and winemaking in this region of incomparable natural beauties but it is also a big responsibility as it is a duty to keep the 2000-year-old tradition. Grapes are a wonderful fruit. It is able to survive the worst times, it gives its weary master belief, pleasure, solace, vivacity or even mild stupor. However, I order it to provide a modest living as well it is no enough to respect tradition only. You need new efforts, up-to-date technologies and appreciative consumers – that is “wine drinkers”, too.
Yes, wine drinkers who understand compositions, workmanship as good wine is like a delicately composed piece of art. Good wine is silent and pure as a Gregorian song that caresses the silence of cellars”.
Mihály Figula
