Kossuth Vintners' Association.
Kiskőrős is situated between the Danube and Tisza rivers in the middle of Hungary largest wine producing region. The sandy soil and high sunshine hours provide the perfect conditions for grape and fruit growers alike.
For over 200 years there has been a deep tradition of grape production and wine making in this region. As such, a large percentage of the town workforce is devoted to the grape and wine industry in the area and on this basis the Kossuth Vintners' Association was formed.
Founded in 1961, the Kossuth Vintners' Association was for many years, one the biggest professional wine making associations in Hungary. After the political changes in 1989 the membership of the association changed significantly, the production profile became more refined and the association was transformed. Thus the Association that exists today came into being.
Currently, the 87 association members cultivate more than 400 hectares of vineyards. Our aim is to effectively market the grapes and wine produced by our members.
We currently have the production and storage capacity, along with the most modern technology available in today's wine market, to consistently produce wine in large quantities and of the highest quality.
Light grape varieties undergo temperature controlled fermentation before being processed with reductive technology, allowing us to produce a aromatic wine with a fruity bouquet.
The dark grapes varieties are fermented in barrels allowing us to reach an outstanding quality
A Number of our growers also produce wine in their own private vineyards. The finished wine is then bought by the association and marketed after standardisation. These wines produced by smaller winery nicely compliments our range.
The Kossuth Vintners' association distributes only 100% Hungarian wines from our members.
Our Winery is equipped with 70000 hectolitre stainless steel tanks, oak barrels and concrete tanks allowing us to store wine in suitable conditions all year round and to continually supply our customers with consistent quality.
