Stock information



The village of Helemba is bordered by three rivers: the Danube flows directly in front, visible all the way to the Esztergom Basilica, with the Ipoly behind it, and the Garam winding along the western side. In 2015, Oszkár Világi and his team planted nearly 10 hectares of vines here. Although there are 300-year-old hole cellars in one of the village's cliffs of loess, there had been no wine activity in the area for the past 30 years. Thus, it's as much of a (re)discovery as it was with Frigyes's wines from Muzsla. 
This place is almost a sanctuary because of the rivers, with mouflon still living here and the waters once defined by sturgeon, as featured on the labels. The volcanic hill is called Burda, with andesite bedrock and clay loess – a superb place for vines. One-third of the 9.5 hectares is organically cultivated, with the rest in transition. The selection is broad, primarily consisting of international varieties, and the winemaking follows a Germanic, precise, reductive direction. The wines are popular in style, yet beneath the varietal character, each has a deeply mineral vibration unique to the place of growth. 
The estate's Pinot Noir truly arrived with the 2021 vintage. The majesty of the vineyard overlooking the Danube is almost palpable, with each sip bearing weight and revealing new flavours. It starts with cherry liqueur, later transitioning into a play between cardamom and cinnamon, while the barrel spices round it out, and the volcanic, andesite soil carries the momentum further. Destemmed, spontaneously fermented in wooden vats, followed by ageing on the lees in French barrels.
