Already nominated in 2008, winemaker György Lörincz won Hungary's most prestigious wine award in 2009: Winemaker of the Year! He owes the title to the uncompromising perfection he pursues. He made wine for years before he felt it was good enough to sell - and that says everything about this idiosyncratic genius.
With 18.5 hectares, György runs a small winery in the famous Eger wine district. He can be found in his vineyards almost daily, meticulously choosing the most suitable grape for each vineyard, and even for each part of the vineyard. György has a notable affinity for the past, and that's exactly what makes him such a unique winemaker. He deliberately returns to the traditional production methods from the time Hungary was a leading wine country in Europe - all his white wines are fermented in Hungarian oak barrels, just as they were back then!
St. Andrea's Bull's Blood in particular is internationally renowned. György carefully selects the most suitable combination of grapes for it, and for years has experimented with the ratio in the blend, which is then aged on Hungarian oak. More than twenty years of trying, searching, learning and experimenting have made him the country's best winemaker. His Bull's Blood has won several major international awards. In the Netherlands, the Merengő Egri Bikavér won the prestigious Grand Prix de Sommeliers in 2010. We currently have five wines from St. Andrea in our range.
