The best wines from Mór in Hungary

In the North of Hungary, in the beautiful valley between the hills of Vértes and Bakony, lies Mór. This Hungarian wine district is one of the smallest and least known in the country. It is home to the Ezerjó grape, which produces robust, fresh white wines.

Mór has a mild, windy climate and a soil with a lot of loess. There are only five large vineyards. No more than 15 winegrowers make a living from wine growing. The others do it in addition to a regular job.

You will therefore not quickly come across wines from Mór in the store or in a restaurant. And certainly not in the Netherlands. Although; Recently, professional winegrowers from Mór have started experimenting with other grapes such as Királyleányka, Chardonnay, Irsai Olivér and Traminer. The results do not seem to be disappointing. Perhaps we will hear more from Mór in the coming years.
