Introduction

The beginning Kern Winery was founded in 2012 with the aim of creating a connection between the past and future of wine production, combining tradition with nature and technology. Our plan is to “revive” traditional, almost forgotten grape varieties using the most modern and gentle procedures.We bought our first areas in Balatonszőlős (Öreghegy, Penke-dűlő), followed by the other plantations in Tokaj-Hegyalja (Tarcal-Mandulás-vineyard, Szegi, Bakonyi) with Tarcal estate center. We currently farm on 10 hectares (5 ha Lake Balaton, 5 ha Tokaj-Hegyalja)WinesOur wines are spontaneously fermented, we only use an absorbable spray in the vineyard in spring. The bottles contain the best fruit, with as little intervention as possible, thus showcasing the diversity and uniqueness of both varieties and areas.In addition to still wines, we make champagne in both wine regions using a traditional method.
